laboratory technicians who can
correctly administer the test,
collect samples, and interpret
results.
5. Quality Control
Measures

reliability of the test results, including
regular calibration of equipment,
adherence to standardized protocols,
and quality control checks.
6. Documentation
and Reporting
Proper documentation of test results,
including patient information, date and
time of testing, and any relevant medical
history. Positive antigen test results
may need to be reported to public health
authorities for tracking and monitoring
purposes.
