“Upon my arrival at the LNS in 2021, I had the opportunity to attend the first ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation audit of the EnvirOH laboratory. Three years later, the entire Department is accredited, thus encompassing the environmental sampling carried out in the field by the MEDI service. As Technical Officer and Quality Coordinator, I am proud to have actively contributed to this success.”

“Integrating metrology into our field sampling service was a challenging yet rewarding task, combining rigor and adaptability. I played a key role in establishing reliable processes to ensure precise measurements despite the constraints of working in the field. This experience has further strengthened my expertise and commitment to quality.”

Nurse and Metrology Referent, Medical Expertise and Data Intelligence
“The double accreditation required a lot of time and effort on my part to meet the various applicable standards. However, the success of this achievement is primarily based on rigorous preparation and the commitment of the entire team to maintain consistent quality, where the precision and reliability of results are crucial for our analyses”
