Conduct various diagnostic tests for tuberculosis using NAAT technology (Nucleic Acid Amplification Test) in Mobile Medical Units (MMUs) across five districts in Uttarakhand.  Collect, label, and process patient samples, ensuring proper handling and storage conditions as per standard protocols.  Ensure all laboratory tests are performed in alignment with Government of India and WHO guidelines for tuberculosis diagnosis.  Maintain detailed and accurate records of laboratory test results, ensuring timely data entry in the Laboratory Management Information System (LMIS) and reporting via the NIKSHAY portal.  Coordinate with the District Tuberculosis Officer (DTO) and other field staff to ensure seamless testing operations and adherence to district-level supervision.  Perform regular calibration and maintenance of laboratory equipment, ensuring high-quality testing with minimal downtime.



 Manage consumable stock levels and ensure the availability of essential reagents, maintaining a “zero stock-out” situation.  Ensure the secure and compliant disposal of biohazardous waste as per Biomedical Waste (BMW) guidelines.  Support IEC (Information, Education, and Communication) activities, educating the population about tuberculosis and promoting test compliance.  Assist with patient follow-up for treatment adherence, particularly among high-risk populations such as close contacts, migrant workers, slum dwellers, and dropouts.  Ensure all tests and data reporting comply with the National Tuberculosis Elimination Program (NTEP) standards and guidelines.
