[Histonet] Amount of work per tech

[Rene J Buesa]

The "standard" benchmark for one HT that "does everything" as you describe is around 9,000 blocks.
Under separate cover I am sending you data on the subject.
By the way, the standard for 9,000 cases would be around 27,000 blocks only. You are preparing more blocks/case than the standard.

   Hello,

   I  was wondering if there are any = standards out there for the amount
   of  work  a  histology tech can do per year= ?  We are currently doing
   around  9000  cases per  year   =  ;(approximately 45,000 blocks) with
   manual  special  staining  and automated (= old Dako Autostainer) with
   just one bench histology tech/supervisor.  
   Thanks,

   Daryl A. Mikita, HT(ASCP)cm
