[Histonet] Slide distribution amongst Pathologists
Hello Netters: I am looking for some ideas regarding slide distribution amongst pathologists. Currently one Dr. reads all the surgicals and one other reads the cytology and bone marrows. We now have 5 Dr.s and they are looking for ways to disperse the work evenly per day. Thanks :) Sheila Adey Charge Technologist Laboratory - Histology Department Bluewater Health 89 Norman Street Sarnia, ON N7T 6S3 519-464-4500 x 7063 ___ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet

[Histonet] Cytology Guru
Happy Monday to everyone in Histoland, I am looking for a cytology guru, especially one that deals with processing and staining of non-gyn cytologies. If you are out there and don't mind me calling you please privately email me your contact information. We are having some processing and staining issues within our lab and I know that there has to be something easier out there than what we are doing, which is everything manually with non-gyn cytologies.

RE: [Histonet] Slide distribution amongst Pathologists
The only way this will be worked out that everyone feels it is fair is if the 5 Dr's set down and talk it out. That way everyone has their say and input.

RE: [Histonet] Slide distribution amongst Pathologists
We divide the work up by trays and mark the number of trays on a dry erase board every day. I have 3 1/2 (1 part time) Pathologist and each day one is Primary, one is secondary and then there is the Cytology/Frozen section Pathologist. They rotate this each day. When the Hemepath guy has a lot of BM slides, we give him less surgical trays. They are great about helping each other out if one is super busy!!! WANDA G.

Re: [Histonet] Slide distribution amongst Pathologists
Mike is right. You will never satisfy 5 pathologists by making the decision yourself. They have to collectively agree on how they want it done otherwise somebody will get bent out of shape because they think their portion on the work is greater than others and it is unfair. You could be at the meeting and make suggestions but they need to make the final decision.
