I don't think it’s a good idea having the lab in a basement, no matter the design, think of all the flammable chemicals you will need to store. What happens to spills and fumes? i hope they will have enough good ventilation? Daniel

Additionally also since the start the laboratory activity less "respected" was that of histotech, always considered "inferior" to the medical lab tech. Histology was practiced from the start by "people" trained "to do histology" and the histology techs�were recruited from janitors, secretaries, or pathologists' family members. It was just a "training" in how to process, section and stain, like a "flesh and bone" instrument. This is a very long trend just now crumbling down because of CAP requirements and even perhaps as a sorts of "human rights" issue BUT there is always something remaining and nobody is surprised if the histology lab is�relegated to the basement which is a non-premium real estate within the hospital. That is why! Oh those old days that in this case are not "good old days"!
