[Histonet] "Population Served" compentency requirements

[Cathy Crumpton]

I was wondering if anyone else was having to come up with a histology department competency with a focus on "population served".  From what I understand it is a Joint Commission requirement for our hospital annual competencies.  We are having a hard time coming up with something because we do not work with the public, just their specimens.  Any ideas???
