Welcome to the Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora Taranaki laboratory services Manual and test dictionary.

The health NZ Laboratory service operates out of Taranaki Base Hospital and Hawera Hospitals.

Both laboratories provide an extensive range of diagnostic testing in Biochemistry, Blood Bank, Haematology and Microbiology. Cytology and histopathology services are provided by Awanui Labs.

Staff are available at both sites for the provision of inpatient and outpatient blood collection

Specialist testing and advice is provided by Canterbury Health Laboratories (CHL) and the New Zealand Blood Service (NZBS) in Waikato.

Departmental test lists, guidance documents, and patient information documents can be found in the sidebar on the left (desktop only).

The lab test guide can be searched in the search bar below, or at any time from the search bar at the top of the page. Alternatively, a full list of available tests is available here: [[:Category:Tests|'''Full test list here (click)''']]
