NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Reisterstown, MD, United States, 04/21/2009 - Antek HealthWare, LLC, developer of LabDAQ® Laboratory Information System, has released a Student Simulator aimed at enhancing the education experience in Clinical Laboratory Science programs.

Health Information Technology is leading change in all aspects of clinical medicine, including laboratory science. In order for Medical Technologist students to be fully prepared for their future, they need to be exposed to the technology that they will be expected to use in a laboratory environment. Under today's curriculum, students are not always educated on the use of a laboratory information system. In most cases, this responsibility is given to the clinical sites where students conduct their clinical training. While this may be done out of necessity, it takes away from the student's clinical experience and slows operations for the hosting facility. The LabDAQ Student Simulator gives the school the necessary tools to simulate a clinical laboratory experience giving students a training mechanism to fully prepare them for their clinical externships and their forthcoming job opportunities. Additionally, the simulator provides faculty with a teaching tool to visually demonstrate aspects of the laboratory environment which, in the past, they would only be able to explain.

“Antek HealthWare is dedicated to supporting Clinical Laboratory Science programs. Given the current shortage of laboratory professionals, programs need to prepare their students as best as possible for the work place as the demand for med techs is at an all-time high.” stated Paul Taylor, Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Antek HealthWare.
