[Histonet] uncertified techs in Histology

[Ingles Claire]

No, it's called we have a NURSE as a histology lab manager (outpatient clinic). She doesn't know what should and should not be done. We are even grossing the dermatology specimens (without extra pay, mind you). Some of us know what the quality level should be and try to exceed that level on a daily basis.

A hospital that relies on uncertified techs to do histology work is motivated by the pursue of costs cuts (you can call it greed!) and shows total disregard for quality of work and patient care. They may end losing all those savings when settling a legal case.
