[Histonet] Grossing

[Schaundra Walton]

We are evaluating some of our grossing procedures and cut off times and I was wondering what other people are doing.
 
Who does your grossing, pathologist, PA, or other qualified individuals?
Who does you accessioning, histotechs, support staff, or other?
What is your cut off time for grossing tissues?
 
Right now our pathologists gross all tissues, the histotechs accession, and grossing is done up until 6pm (which is when the processor begins).
 
Thanks for the info!
