EASLEY — Baptist Easley Hospital Laboratory again received national recognition and accreditation from the College of American Pathologists (CAP) based on a recent on-site inspection. The laboratory, for the second consecutive time, received notification of a 100 percent passing score with no deficiencies.

The CAP accreditation process is designed to ensure the highest standard of care for all laboratory patients.
