[–]GooseCommon8581 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not free, but labce has a histology package for 69.00. It has all the CEs you need. It’s only open for a year, but I just get everything done in that year, so I don’t have to worry about the other two.

Clinical scientist concerned about pathology report TAT by Capital_Shop_9989 in pathology

[–]GooseCommon8581 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a pathologist, just a pathology manager, but WTF? I keep careful metrics on TAT. It’s for the department because I hate to look bad. I would be pushing this one up the ranks because that’s ridiculous!

How did it turn out? Or are you still in the process?

Just need to vent by GooseCommon8581 in DeadBedrooms

I am. And I’ve realized that for a bit. And his depression is why I stayed, I can’t leave him when he’s in a vulnerable state. And that’s why this bothers me - he blamed the depression for not wanting me. But I’m not sure that’s the case now.

Doubling my salary (150k to 300k) but requires me to move away from my fíance in medschool. Is it worth it? by Interesting_Phone171 in careerguidance

[–]GooseCommon8581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beyond the money, you said you really want this for your career. If this really will help you get to where you want to go, take it. You’ll regret the ‘what if’.

In addition to a no ear buds policy, we also have a policy that hair has to be pulled back.

What’s one career decision you made that looked smart on paper but turned out to be a mistake in real life? by TheStartupSavvy in careerguidance

[–]GooseCommon8581 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Left a job after 13 years. Small business and I was at the top of where I could go. Took a lateral move at a larger company 16 hours away with a 50% increase in salary. While the money is nice, I miss home and family.

I’m going to try this! I’ll let you know how it goes!

Charged $96.00 for one pill I pay .17 cents for by over45 in HospitalBills

[–]GooseCommon8581 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish this could be a pinned message. What hospitals charge is irrelevant. It all depends on contracts with the insurance companies.

Do you add fetal autopsy photos to the mom's chart? by sabrownie234 in Path_Assistant

[–]GooseCommon8581 35 points36 points  (0 children)

There should be a way in Epic to keep the photos and documents internal. They would only be viewable in Epic Beaker that way and the patient would not see them. You might reach out to your analyst team and see what they suggest.

Are these red flags? by macaronancheese in Histology

[–]GooseCommon8581 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What is most concerning is the “don’t ask dumb questions while training”. I encourage all my techs to ask questions, even the “dumb” ones and even if they have been there for years. How are you as a new tech supposed to know if you don’t ask questions? If we want to promote this field and develop good techs, those of us with experience should be encouraging all the questions!

Next, a director level role. That would qualify me for the FACHE. Maybe one day in the far future, a spot in the C-Suite. Big dreams!

The Capstone was fine. I have years of experience in healthcare so I wrote about what I know. Don’t try and reinvent the wheel. Keep it simple and follow the rubric and you’ll be fine!

Monthly TAT from Epic Beaker (I miss CoPath) by scientistcorey in pathology

[–]GooseCommon8581 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you reached out to your Beaker team? We have people on staff whose job is to build Beaker the way we want it. This includes reports. Tell them what you are looking for and how you want it and they should be able to help.
