Hi Rosa. Do you have an easy explanation of the difference between different accreditations and certified standards implemented in the Lab. ? For example CAP , ISO 15189 , ISO 17025 etc.
Thanks for the video! I'm going to have an interview in a few weeks for a job in a lab in the United States, and I'm a nervous because I'm from Mexico, so you know my English isn't perfect, but I could understand all your video.
I did an interview at a hospital where they were looking for a generalist, but when I visited it, they only had chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, and coag. No BB, micro, and immuno.
Is there any things on TH-cam to practice the epic system. If you know Epic is the system used by some hospitals to keep patients records. I don't know if you use the same in your job.
This was a great question. I did see there are a few videos regarding epic, but I’m not sure how in-depth they go into learning the system. You are correct of the majority of hospitals are starting to use epic and it’s becoming more widespread throughout hospital systems. I have used epic in the past. I believe it is pretty user-friendly and very easy to navigate. I didn’t get too much training on it, but I feel like it was pretty self-explanatory, will you be using it for job?
Congratulations on getting the position! I wouldn’t worry too much about studying on your own. That’s what you’re getting paid to do and most labs don’t have a set training time. They want you to learn at your own pace.
I believe there will still be a need as there are always issues with technology. It requires a live person to fix an issue or resolve a discrepancy. I don’t believe technology will replace a live person in our lifetime but it’s possible that in the distant future technology will take over every aspect of our lives and jobs.
It happens is every field, not just with this career. For example, a lot of medical assistants have to use technology, they used to do it hands on, now they have to use technology but they are still needed in the field. A lot of stores have individual checkout registers so costumers can do it themselves but they still need cashiers. Workers are going to be needed regardless of the technology situation going on. Workers will be needed no matter what, so don’t worry!
I had same question when I was a sudent now am working in microbiology lab and I saw multiple instruments but still MLS is needed and short everywhere .
Hey Rosa , I'm truly so thankful to you for all these hints and tips you provide that's was really so much helpful to me for my interview tomorrow, may i ask in Which state are you working at , because as far as i know that's some states they obligatory required an ASCP from us , and my interview is in Missouri state so is there any local licences or ASCP they demand it in order to work as MLS in hospital laboratory ?
Hi Rosa! I have been watching you for a while and I'm so thankful for your MLS videos. I am currently a nursing student (I'm in my medical surgical class rn) and I'm thinking about switching into the my school's MLS program. Would you happen to have any tips or advice that you can give? I'd greatly appreciate it.
Hi Bree! Thank you for checking out my videos! What are you currently not enjoying about nursing that makes you want to switch majors? I think that is very important to talk about so I can give you some advice :)
I am thinking of going into nursing because lab pay is significantly lower. If you’re able to get into a genetics lab/ or a specialty lab you may be able to be paid more.
You might be able to apply for a visa. I would look at your country requirements. I am not sure how this works though as I live and hold citizenship where I work.
Well, they didn't hire me and they sent me a message saying that "we apologize blah blah but we are not going any further about your application". My response" ok thank you for your time".
Experience really matters for employers to hire employees. The hospital where I did my rotation gave me a job offer, but I wasn't ready to start working straight after graduation and I denied it. I think most people do their internships in the hospital where they want to work and they get hired easily. Now I find a job in another state and I have to move next week.
MLT is a medical laboratory technician which is lower degree /license which is an AS. MLS medical laboratory scientists or MT medical technologist are higher levels which often require a BS. In my state I am able to take the AAB which is a MT license without my BS
Hello Rosa , I have a high school homework and I will really appreciate it if you asnwers this quiestions for me ... Give the place of employment, years of employment and level of employment responsibility . @ Rosa Pérez
I feel like I can depend what kind of lab you’re working. When I worked at the hospital I would have to stand a little bit more maybe about 60% of the time and now at my current job I sit for about 80% of the time but I do work in a research lab now so it’s a little bit different.
@@RosaPerez oh okay thanks for the info, it's just important to me that it's possible to find a job where you can sit even if it is every hour for 30 mins, I can stand but after a while I start feeling pain so sitting is important, I will make sure to find jobs where I can do that, thank you 😊 😊
@@isittrueisitnot3303 you’re welcome. Definitely talk to your future employer about this when you have interviews and they should be accommodating for you 😊 if that’s an issue for them then don’t worry there will be a place and people who will
Hi Rosa, I passed my ASCP in 2019. But I dnt hv NY State license as I am a foreigner graduates. I have a interview In coming days . I dnt hv any experience in this country. Can you give me any suggestions or advice for the interview?? Thank you .
I know it is difficult not to get nervous but try your best to just be yourself and let your personality shine through. The people who are interviewing you will see that and see you would make a great addition to their lab. How did your interview go?
I’d love to hear you talk about the difference between the 4 divisions: pros/cons
-Microbiology
-Chemistry
-Hematology
-Blood Bank
That’s a really great idea!!! I’ll start planning it out thank you :)
Thanks

Same to me
And how was the interview
Thank you so much, Rosa Perez. I love your videos.
you're welcome and thanks for watching!
Thank you Rosa for such information. This could help a lot .
I'm glad this video was helpful to you. Best of luck on your journey.
I did an interview at a hospital where they were looking for a generalist, but when I visited it, they only had chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, and coag. No BB, micro, and immuno.
Every lab is different and they may not have every department. They may send their samples to specialty labs.
How did your interview go?
Yes,but if they don't have every department, after sometime I'm gonna forget about the departments that are missing.
Yeah, that’s possible. You can always find a job that has everything. It’s really what you are looking for in a job.

What do you think in future the demand of Medical Laboratory scientists can restrict because of new technologies that can replace us ?

i'm debating the same two options. Can I ask why you want to leave the nursing program?
I am thinking of going into nursing because lab pay is significantly lower. If you’re able to get into a genetics lab/ or a specialty lab you may be able to be paid more.
Hey I'm from India and want to work in canda ! Can you please give me a list of good labs in Canada 🙏it would be a good help!
Excellent presentation.where do you work?
Can you make a video about the pay or your first paycheck as an MLT
Ah yes that is a great idea!
Can you please make videos talking about your career as a central processing technician?
Hi there! I have one made I am still in the process of editing it :)
if we become MLS the we could do both work like model and mls too
What's model work?
hello) tell me please, what textbooks or Question Forms on AIMS have you read?
That is a great question! I didn’t read any. I just used the schools PowerPoints.
2 month interview?
it was a long process to get hired
i have 12 years experience in blood bank field
Blood bank is my favorite :)
but how to apply
tell me
please
Will I still have to get a mlt Certificate if I have a bachelors in Biomedical science
Yes I belive so but it depends on the job. For some you may not need it
Hi ROSA MAM, IM AKHTAR SHAH BLOOD BANK TECHNICIAN, MY WISH IS I WANT TO WORK IN US. TELL ME THE PROCEDURE , HOW TO APPLY ?
Please add some technical questions also
What kind of questions do you want to know?
Hi , I like your presentation ❤
I am a biochemist
Thank you!!
Que Belleza, quisiera saber como te esta yendo?
Life is going well thank you
Also please tell me the best way to get job there for immigrants 🙏 please share this 🙏 waiting for your reply
You might be able to apply for a visa. I would look at your country requirements. I am not sure how this works though as I live and hold citizenship where I work.
I failed in my first interview, but I didn't like the hospital either, I just went to get some experience.
How do you know you failed your first interview?
Well, they didn't hire me and they sent me a message saying that "we apologize blah blah but we are not going any further about your application". My response" ok thank you for your time".
Do you have any idea why you might’ve not gotten hired?

I think most people do their internships in the hospital where they want to work and they get hired easily. Now I find a job in another state and I have to move next week.
I think it really depends on the employer. I also had a job offer from my clinical site and I denied it as well.
This really helped me ... Thank you
You’re welcome!
Will remain in touch with u .. u r very helpful
Good job 👌👍
Thanks :)
What is the difference between medical laboratory scientists? And medical laboratory tech? Is it the same thing?
She has a video on it!
No ,MLS is higher than MLT
@@carebear7027 in Canada, medical laboratory scientist and medical laboratory technologist are the same thing!
