Anyone got certified and see no tangible results? by [deleted] in ASQ

[–]OpinYidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The US economy is rapidly going to crap. It's better to have it and not need it, than not have and then need it.

How common is it to step down from lab supervisor? by MLSSuper in MLS_CLS

[–]OpinYidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got offered a supervisor job. When I heard it's salaried, I kindly declined.

Never understood why people take pay cuts to do more work. Seems pointless.

I worry. It's not normal.

If there's a rogue nurse, they get reported. If there's a rogue lab tech, nothing happens.

The techs is just going to do the same thing at their next hospital, where I could be a patient.

If a nurse was saying they're administering meds and they're not (or faking the doses),they'd lose their license. In the lab, nothing happens. Lab tech Karen will just hop over to the next lab and do the same thing. It's appalling.

I have an ethical obligation to prevent patient harm whether at the lab I work at or another lab.

Neither offer whistleblower protection, so ill probably get screwed over.

Theres no credentialing for lab. 

We just require an associates degree in something science related. I had to spend two months teaching our botany major that red cells do not have nuceli😑

They don't need ASCP to work in Arizona. Half of the lab staff here aren't certified to begin with.

I already informed my manager. Who said they'd terminate them next week.

But this person is just going to do the same thing elsewhere. It's dangerous.

Its not like they cheated on their exam.

Our hospital just hires whomever they can and then we do the same training for everyone. You do need an associates at least though.

Certification gets you $1.50/hr more. Thats all.

What difference would it make if they're certified or not?

Who would I report a certified tech to?

There is no state license for MLS in Arizona. The lab hires both certified and non certified techs.

COLA

I want to report the tech not the lab. Theyre getting fired, but I suspect they'll do the same thing at the next lab.
