[Histonet] RE: Receipt of specimens
Tanya, in our Copath system we have field for Date Taken (ie,service Date) and Date Received (in Pathology). So we account for items received during off hours. Or puts holds fresh specimens in a fridge for pickup, or takes to a Cyto fridge in some locations. Cyto specimens delivered after regular cytology hours are taken out of courier containers and put in the cyto fridge by Histo staff.

Especially on the off shift hours? Other clinical lab specimens are received directly in the computer in Specimen Processing when they come in the door from remote locations or via the tube system, then delivered to departments. During the day, specimens get dropped off directly to Pathology by the various departments collecting (ie. OR, Radiology, etc). On our off shifts, specimens get received by Specimen Processing(date/time stamped and initialed) and put in the fridge for Histo/Cyto the next day. When Histo and Cyto put the specimens in the computer, for the receive date, they go by the date the specimens are received (or unpacked) in Histo/Cyto. I am thinking we should go by the date/time Specimen Processing received them in to the actually laboratory where the specimens are then controlled. Any input is appreciated! Thanks! Tanya Tanya G.

[Histonet] Looking for a Histotech positions in Massachusetts
Dear Histonetters, A professional histotechnologist with nearly 7 years of experience at a small pharmaceutical company is looking for a new position in Mass. I have started a lab from scratch and purchased equipment and trained coworkers on small animal necropsies and organ harvesting. I performed subsequent tissue fixation and tissue processing and paraffin/OCT embedding, I have experience suing a rotary microtome and a cryostat. I have developed biomarker testing panels using IHC, IF and in situ techniques both manually and on DAKO and Ventana autostainers. In addition, I have developed beta gal staining method for frozen tissues and performed specialty staining as well. I have implemented image analysis capabilities in our lab, Aperio and HistoQuest modules and performed image analysis with their respective softwares. If you happen to hire or know someone who is hiring, I would appreciate any leads. Thank you very much.
