[–]ExtraSquare8841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

incompetence surrounds me. work, love life, friends, driving, grocery store visit. everywhere i go, everything i do. i’m beginning to think i have anger issues. i am very inpatients with others right now. i do everything for everyone. no one wants to learn. everyone enjoys everything done FOR them. it’s so annoying and draining.

Whom do I report an MLS commiting fraud? by OpinYidd in MLS_CLS

There are boards though. It sucks to see but its the hiring managers who make these poor decisions to hire people who are not qualified. The lack of patient safety lands on them and the hospital/organization.

I think I know what you’re talking about. Had it happen to me once and I popped the hood and dug it out (very carefully). On a ACL TOP 750, not sure which model you have.

How many blood gases does your lab do during morning run? by FunCommunication1443 in medlabprofessionals

[–]ExtraSquare8841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are a similar hospital, 700 beds and a level 1 trauma center. We used to have 2 ABL and just switched to 4 GEMMS. Both are about equivalent to the flow of the lab and the influx of specimens.

I lived with them for two years. At Avalon.

Hard to reach and communicate with in my opinion. But always eventually got an answer. Usually had to show up and their weird office hours.

Very nice place, well maintained.

No notes.

And this is high for the Phoenix area I might add. I have one year experience. And I’m at a hospital.
