I started out my carrier change studying to be a RN. BUT it was boring for the most part sitting for long hours typing in the relentless paperwork. Medical lab technicians jobs are always new and exciting. No two results are the same. You are a mini detective, lifesaver, mad scientist all in one. Doctors and nurses see one is ill from the outside, but we see deep into the tissue, blood, urine and body fluids to see what is causing the illness. To see the morphology of the cells, the bacteria growing inside blood, wounds, our tissue and to know this is what probably is causing the illness. Only to give the results to the Dr. for him to tell you what the problem is. We get no thanks but we know we don’t have to be the glory seekers. Not to forget blood banking. We test the blood for correct matches for transfusions because one can’t simply just get any blood. So yes our job is hidden but we are Super Heroes! I love my job!!!

Without quality systems in the clinical laboratory, diagnosis can be a crap shoot. No test is better than a test that yields an incorrect value & sends the physician down a bunny trail looking for something that is not there.
