[Histonet] uncertified techs in Histology

[Tom McNemar]

We used to take parts but stopped due to safety concerns.  Tried to encase them in acrylic but it turned yellow.  Too bad, they were always a big hit.

We have a collection of specimens - heart, lungs, kidneys, brains, etc.
that I have taken to schools for health fairs. We also loan them to
other health care professionals to use for this purpose also. We talk
about smoking, drinking, eating, bike and skate board safety, etc as we
have normal, emphysema and malignant lungs, and normal and cirrhosis
liver. It is always a great hit with the kids. I take along brochures
and talk to the students about this profession. I hope they remember! J

We attend career days and always take a microscope and brochures.  The
NSH has some wonderful free brochures, you only pay for the shipping.
The Histology table is always one of the most popular.
