Automated Laboratory System Launched at Western Memorial Regional Hospital

Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services has launched a track system to enhance laboratory services at the Western Memorial Regional Hospital in Corner Brook.

The track system uses robotics automation to move laboratory samples, such as blood tubes, from sample submission to analysis. This process was previously manual.

The system allows for increased efficiency by automating repetitive tasks. It also allows seamless transitions between tasks and by automating routine tasks, this system optimizes resources, allowing staff to focus on more complex activities.
