Georgia was named for King George II of England. Georgia was founded in 1732 by British Member of Parliament James Oglethorpe. Oglethorpe's original intention was to use the colony as a place for debt-ridden people to get a fresh start. Georgia is the largest state east of the Mississippi River. Georgia has seven official natural wonders: Amicalola Falls, the Okefenokee Swamp, Providence Canyon, Radium Springs, Stone Mountain, Tallulah Gorge, and Warm Springs.Hospitals and doctors’ offices wouldn’t be the same without medical lab technicians. MLTs are a critical component of a functioning healthcare facility. They work under the supervision of physicians, lab managers or lab technologists to conduct lab tests on specimens. The work they do behind-the-scenes helps doctors detect diseases or illnesses and determine treatment options. MLTs perform chemical analyses of body fluids (such as blood or urine) using a microscope or automatic analyzer. These tools help MLTs detect abnormalities or diseases, using a computer to enter their findings throughout the process. These chemical analyses are considered to be a core job duty, but MLTs also use mechanical and electrical devices to ensure their test results conform to specifications.
