Everyplace I have worked it was done by hematology. When hemo tried to dump this job on us the pathologist stepped in to remind them that this is their area of expertise. We do not expect hemo to do frozen sections and we do not do bone marrows. After they have made their smears and sent the flow they drop off the core and asp. and one smear for iron to us. We handle decaling the bone.

Good Morning,
At this point, our Hematology Dept assists on BMs on the floors.  If they could, they would pass it on to us, but we do not have the staff (or desire) to do it.  My past 2 HT hires came from places where the histotechs assisted on the BM collection.
Hope that helps!

Can anyone provide some input about which department  (Hematology, Histology etc.) assists on the patient floors with bone marrow aspirations and to what extent? Thanks in advance!
