[Histonet] Who can perform which job functions

[Sharon.Davis-Devine]

Ok, all of you Histonetters I have another question for you.  Who the
histology laboratory can perform these job functions:  embedding,
cutting, performing special stains and IHC?  Can a lab assistant perform
these duties if properly trained or do you have to be classified as a
Histotech in training?  Can a Cytotech or Med Tech perform such duties,
again if properly trained?  All opinions and references to such
requirements would be greatly appreciated.
