As long as the CEO/MD are on sight at all times while she is doing her duties. They need to be on sight accessible for your assistant.She will also need a Designee statement signed by the CEO/MD and herself that states what she is responsible for. She is not allowed to GROSS. Other than that I believe that she can over see the lab while you are gone.

My lab assistant only has a high school degree and never had any background in any sciences. She knows nothing about trouble-shooting, nor theory and practice. She has worked primarily in clerical roles for our GI practice for 13 years. In the past 1.5 years, I trained her to accession, process, embed, cut, stain, and coverslip. We do not do IHC here. Our CEO/GI, MD said she could oversee our new HTL during my absence.
