ASCP Great Plains Chapter

04/21/2026

Today was an honor. 💙

Members of the ASCP Great Plains Chapter had the privilege of standing at the Nebraska State Capitol to recognize Medical Laboratory Professionals Week.

While only a few of us were able to attend in person, this proclamation represents all medical laboratory professionals across our state. Those working behind the scenes, 24/7, ensuring patients receive accurate diagnoses and the care they need.

Because the truth is:
In healthcare, the laboratory is where uncertainty becomes answers.

We are proud to represent this profession and even more proud to help give it a voice.

To our colleagues across Nebraska… especially those at the bench today… this week is for YOU. 🧪
