I have worked at a large hospital that had a lot of automation (Roche, Cellavision, etc.), but we still spent a lot of time doing manual work. There was a lot of training and answering phone calls too. Especially in blood bank, hematology, and micro. Chemistry was mostly automated but you basically had to be glued to the computer to validate results. Even if it is fully automated there will be a need, and considering the lack of workers it will not make a difference in job availability.

As a student im learning that we can correct a machine’s cbc count because it’ll count nRbc as wbc and we r needed to manually diff between the two

and its been 2 years since I'm working as section incharge of biochemistry laboratory

Yes, the other day in my lab, the technologist had to go with my department to find out if both samples received have the same name for a patient, bc he received two urine samples but the results looks like two different people so the lab have to collect the patient again but the machine did not read this weird results it just give the results and that it

Thank you very much Rosa! Also, I have a question, are you guys taught during training how to correct the machines if they malfunction?

I mean I guess but with automation when it works it's fantastic when it breaks down omg watch out lol. It can't be because there is so much quality control and quality assurance. Heck when they get a new lot of QC it can still drift. The chem lead tech at my place has to consult with other lead techs in the area to see if there is a drift. Then they have to adjust.

If not fully automated then filled with people who are not certified.

hello 👋🏽 love ur vids!! Can u make one about the application interview in university? This is my last year completing the prerequisite courses and I am most nervous for the interview part... xoxoxo have a good day Rosa 🌹

I honestly agree with you

Do you fear for the future of MLS? A lot of seasoned professionals say it is a dying field NOT because of lack of demand, but instead not being able to hire enough competent people therefore having the close down facilities. Just recently there has been news of states like TN and GA deregulating the MLS field, meaning formal certification and what not is no longer required (those politicians are idiots.) The intent for this is to get more working bodies into the lab, but the major con to this is obviously UNQUALIFIED people who don't really know what they are doing. From my understanding it takes more than pushing a button to be in this field. Thank God I don't live in those crappy states.

Hi , just wanted to ask about your last year in your program which is done in the hospital, was it paid or not?? Thank. You and I hope you reply

*What do u think about agricultural domaine ?, Im in it and i kinda déteste it.*
