Updated

1. Greet and Verify

  • Greet the donor professionally
  • Ask for the Authorization Form and photo ID.
  • Verify that the information on the form matches the ID and that the donor is the correct individual.

2. Confirm Readiness

  • Ask if the donor is ready to test or if they would like a cup of water first.
  • If they request water, provide a cup before beginning the collection process.

3. Move to the Lab Area

  • Escort the donor to the lab/testing area.

4. Select Organization on Tablet

  • On your tablet, search for the Fastest Labs location listed on the authorization form.
  • If you cannot locate their specific organization, you may select your Walk-In Organization to proceed.

5. Select Rapid Test Panel

  • Once the organization is selected, choose the appropriate rapid test cup and test panel listed on the authorization form.

6. Secure Personal Items

  • Let the donor know that all personal items (phone, keys, wallet, pens, etc.) must be placed in the locker.
  • While they are putting items away, scan the donor’s ID into the system.

7. Hand Hygiene and Signature

  • While scanning the ID, instruct the donor to wash their hands.
  • After scanning, have the donor sign electronically on the tablet to confirm agreement to test.
  • Once signed, lock the locker for security.

8. Explain the Collection Rules

  • Provide the donor with the rapid cup (keep the lid with you).
  • Clearly explain the collection instructions:
    • Do not flush the toilet.
    • Do not wash hands until returning the specimen.
    • They may close the restroom door for privacy.

9. Receive and Check the Specimen

  • Put on gloves before accepting the cup.
  • Allow the donor to wash their hands after handing you the specimen.
  • Immediately check the temperature strip on the cup.
  • If the temperature is in range, secure the lid tightly and proceed.
  • If the sample is out of temperature or needs to be canceled for any reason, call the requesting Fastest Labs location for instructions before proceeding further.

10. Scan and Record Results

  • Place the sealed cup on the testing stand and scan it with your tablet.
  • Make sure the tablet screen faces away from the donor during processing.
  • If the result is negative, click “Temp In Range” and then “Sign & Send” to upload the results.
  • If the result is non-negative, follow the Testing Protocol Form for confirmation and send-out instructions.

11. Finalize and Release Donor

  • Discard the used rapid cup appropriately.
  • Unlock the locker so the donor can retrieve their belongings.
  • Return the donor’s ID and let them know they are good to go.
  • If the donor asks for results, explain that you are not authorized to release results — they will be sent to their company directly.

12. Send Results to Requesting Fastest Labs

  • After the donor leaves, go to your Labb dashboard.
  • Locate the donor’s results, download them, and send them to the requesting Fastest Labs location via email.
