Fellow lab tech here. It’s so nice to see a video of what we do on a daily basis. We can start educating more people about our field. Hope to see more content from you.
OMG. I am a freshman Biology major that wants to become an MLT. And a video of a black girl like me as an MLT comes up on my explore page?! I'm so happy. Thank you for your video!
Mlt = associates degree in applied science Mls = bachelors degree in applied science Tbh idk the difference between the two except that one can be a manager/supervisor and the mlt cant.
@@apdroidgeek1737 I don’t really know if it is offered at my university but Thank you for your advice and help. I am a Biology major with the Biotechnology concentration.
Being a MA it’s nice to see what goes on after we draw the blood and put the orders in then leave the specimen at the lab. My sister is a laboratory scientist and she loves it.
I’m excited to see more of your content! I’m a MLT as well! Currently in school to become a MLS! Watching your video makes me very motivated to continue school and really enjoy my career! ❤️
@@marjoriekdee Hello girl, would you mind telling me about your MT online program? I mean your MT program is online 100%? And how about clinicals? Thank you in advance.
whenever i’m loosing my passion and motivation to push through my chosen course which is science in medicine laboratory, I always watch vlogs like this and it never fails me. I want to see myself one day working inside a laboratory and helping and healing people through my service.
I’m currently in a BS Medical Laboratory Science program at my school and I’m super excited! This really inspired me to keep going and fulfill this dream of mine of always wanting to work in a lab! I already have an associates degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology, and although now going for my BS in MLS seems like such a big switch, it’ll somehow go hand in hand and catapult me forward! I do have experience in QC -very little- specifically for inspecting part tolerance, but seeing QC pop up in this video was also exciting. Thank you for the inspiration 🤍 And I love your hair!
Very interesting! I myself am looking into a lab tech career and was interested to see how this kind of thing works. I actually found the background music to be a bit distracting, but your video editing was decent otherwise. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for this video! It's one of the most informational ones I've come by. I've been curious about being a MLT, and I'm still trying to figure out if it's what I want to do after high school.
I appreciate you taking the time to make this video. I'm currently in school atm taking care of my prerequisites in order to enter into a MLT program. I have a long way to go- but its nice to see what an average day would look like for me in the future (possibly). Thank you thank you thank you :)
I’m an MLT and this was cool to see! I work in hematology so I don’t see a lot of the chemistry testing. Nice to see someone showing the public our profession:)
I'm currently in school to become a MLT 😊 had my first internship last December and wow your workplace seems very calm compared to what I experienced at a rather big laboratory outside of a hospital!
Been a MLT for 12 years now, it is def a rewarding job, but very underpaid considering all we do. I work at 2 small hospital labs, i work alone and i draw the patients, plus do all maintenace, QC and even help with codes in the ER! I do police kit draws when they arrest someone thats drunk or been in accident! It can be exciting job! Never dull moment. It can be very hectic at times. I would suggest for those interested in being a lab tech to try to talk to someone that is one. However with covid now it can be very difficult to maybe shadow someone in a lab. For the money, i sometimes wish i had been a nurse, but on the other hand i love what i do. God bless you all!
Thank you for posting this. I am a MLT as well. We dont get the respect and recognition that we deserve. We deal with alot and the job isnt as easy as people think it is. They think we just push buttons but no no its more to it than that. Alot of nurses and doctors think everything in the lab suppose to come quick but they fail to understand that its a process. Without lab the doctors and nurses wouldnt make it but they can be so disrespectful to the lab. Its sad but true! Enjoyed the video 🔬🔬🔬
@@merongebremeskel1974 I cant speak for others but from my experience yes it can be overwhelming. Especially when you have doctors and nurses calling rushing for results when they just sent a specimen. But it does have its rewarding sides though, I love what I do.. 🔬🔬🔬
Thank you so much for making this video! This helped me so much in really understanding what is required in the job of a medical lab tech. I will be applying to a program to become a medical lab tech soon!
being a medical lab tech is one of my career paths of choice and these "day in a life" videos really help me decide what to do in my life. your job is really interesting and not a lot people credit y'all for it. thank you sm!
I'm about to start my clinical year of education before certification and I'm super excited! i love seeing other people's daily routines for the job and it gets me excited to work as a MLT!
Great Video. I know more than ever this is the right field for me. I always get so excited watching med lab technician videos. I'm hoping to enroll in the program hopefully next year January 2022!!
Girl I LOVE the song you used in this video, I have it in my playlist! its one of my favorites! I am currently at community college originally to become a MLT but I decided to transfer earlier to university so I am just shooting for MLS though I still have to do rounds before I graduate! I'm so nervous but we all can do this! our world needs us right now! you are so inspiring keep on girl! love this video!
I’m a medical lab science student and I’m so excited to start working! I recommend this career for science lovers who want to be involved in patient care
@@lbflittlebutterfly4846 Tell me more.Is this challenging for someone not good in Math,never studied chemistry and Biology?Considering doing it,am in Canada
Amber Acevedo Hey Amber🙋🏾♀️ hope you’re having a good day! I consider myself an introvert and I enjoy working as a lab tech! As a med-tech you do have to work with your coworkers and sometimes speak with a doctor or nurse of that patient, but that’s a fear I got over after doing it so many times. Also, you do have to learn a little chemistry but it’s different in med-tech school. You will focus more on how the body processes proteins, electrolytes, and drug therapy for treating and diagnosing patients. Hope I answered your question😊
And of course sometimes you will have to face the patients for sample collection which is a must and you have to communicate your fellow co workers including doctors, nurses, pharmacists and radiologists if they need more explanation about patient results and if they need your advice..though most of the time you will be at the lab..thatc your house for sure😂😂😂
It looks like y'all use mostly Beckman Coulter for your core lab analyzers. Coming from a Roche heavy lab to one that uses BC instead, it is a learning CURVE. wish you best of luck in the field love ❤
Great video! This is something I've been looking in to for a while now, and I'm getting ready to go off to college. When you say you're a traveling tech, does that mean you control when and where you get to travel and work, or are you sent somewhere by someone?
@@derekaray Also, how often are you working with other people? I know it’s not as up close and personal as doctors and nurses, but are you by yourself a lot?
@@Imthat_maddie That honestly depends on the size of the hospital. If you work in a doctor's office or a small clinic you may work by yourself. In a larger hospital, you do have to work with others in one area. For example, chemistry is a busy area so there are usually three people working that one bench. That's doing the day shift but the night shift usually have less staff with only one people per area.
We also take blood samples depending on the hospital. They will ask for phlebotomy experience. But if you are a hospital going through so many samples, it is less convenient for techs in chemistry or hematology, micro, etc to have to go through all of their sample batches and go to patients. If you are a small facility with not many samples then it’s fine.
Hi, greetings from Indonesia. In Indonesia, we also takes samples (doing plebotomy, swab for mrsa, or even swab naso and oropharing) but it also depends on the laboratory or hospital. Cheers😀
I just started working as a lab medical assistant..I am so scared😢😢. I dont feel like I can do this, watching your videoes is giving me some confidence..but its nerve wrecking
One of the best jobs for those who like to be left a lone to do their work in peace. You get used to stat orders that are annoying but they come to you in a pneumstic tubes and results nowadays are just uploaded to EPIC/LLEAP. Occasional phone calls or messages via pager (most preferred pager messaging, as did I) It's like microbio but you get paid well to do it, you need to have an organized mind or it'll feel like you're all over the place.
im a lab. technician also... but still i dont have any idea whats the process and how much is the show money for us aspiring filipinos who wanted to work abroad.
Hi Dereka, I'm a CPT-1 and I was wondering if I got enough clinical lab experience if I cold test out to be a MLT?? I understand if you can't directly answer this question or simply don't know but I would also like to say you've inspired me to further my career/education in healthcare. LOVE the videos!!!!
I am not sure if it's possible, because to be eligible for the examination you must satisfy their minimum requirements. I would check out ASCP, AMT, & AAB credentialing and see if you meet any of their requirement to sit for the exam. I hope that helps and thank you your comment made my day. 🥰
@@derekaray Thank you so much for getting back to my comment Dereka!! I honestly wasn't expecting a response, thank you so much for taking time out of your day to answer my question and you've defiantly pointed me in the right direction 😆 with my current experience I can actually take a 6 month accrediting program. THANK YOU SO MUCH DEREKA!!! I wish you the best of travel's!!🤩😊
If you dont like Science and Technology this field is not the best field for you at all. Biology chemistry and the like causes one to be confused about the requirement of the school.
Not my channel but I worked in this career. Memorization will only go so far in the program. Really dive in to the clinical applications and tie everything together, lecture and lab, from any values you may get, patient history and presentation, etc to help get the bigger picture. Passing all of the tests is not your only end goal. There are lives behind those specimens and the results you put out determine their treatment.
Im majoring in biology but I want to work in internal medicine. I am going to the hospital next week to interview for a lab job just to gain some hospital work experience.
i want to work in healthcare but I'm someone that scares myself at the thought of making a mistake.... so have you ever made mistakes and improper results were sent out? is your mlt schooling thorough enough that nothing in the actual job would surprise and make you feel like you have no idea what you're doing?
Schooling is your foundation but you will learn a lot on the job. As far as mistakes chances are they will happen and I’m gonna tell you what the MT’s told me! You will not make a mistake that no one else has already made so don’t be worried.
Hi, I have a question. I’m a junior in high school and I’m looking into becoming a MLT. If you don’t mind me asking, what was your path into becoming a MLS? I understand if the question is too personal though.
I was in the same position as you when I was in high school so I thought I would share some of my wisdom. I live in Canada so all you really need to be a certified MLS is a bachelor that will allow you to write the national board exam (Canadian Society for Medical Laboratory Science aka CSMLS) and then you have to pass the board exam and be registered in the CMLTO aka College Of Medical Laboratory Technologists Of Ontario). I think for americans it's pretty much the same steps but instead of the CSMLS it would be the ASCP aka American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science. I'm not sure if they have to registrer anywhere though. If you are Canadian and would like more information, feel free to message me and I would be more then happy to help you out!
@@mandiangumd hi I was wondering if a bachelor in biology will allow me to write the national board exam to become a medical lab technologist? I also live in Canada.
@@chenni4127 Hey! Unfortunately it’s illegal to be a medical laboratory technologist without the certification because it’ll be malpractice so if you are in a program that isn’t med lab certified you could finish your degree and then take another med lab science course to qualify for the board exam. Michener in Toronto is the best option for people in that scenario because it’s only 2 years, I believe.
Without them your doctor is just guessing,these people are the heroes behind the scene
Thank you
true what you said
Would you say it louder pleaseeeee
Facts!!!

Shoot for MT
Why not just take the mlt program lol
Change your program and go for mlt or mls
Mlt = associates degree in applied science
Mls = bachelors degree in applied science
Tbh idk the difference between the two except that one can be a manager/supervisor and the mlt cant.

I live in Canada so all you really need to be a certified MLS is a bachelor that will allow you to write the national board exam (Canadian Society for Medical Laboratory Science aka CSMLS) and then you have to pass the board exam and be registered in the CMLTO aka College Of Medical Laboratory Technologists Of Ontario). I think for americans it's pretty much the same steps but instead of the CSMLS it would be the ASCP aka American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science. I'm not sure if they have to registrer anywhere though. If you are Canadian and would like more information, feel free to message me and I would be more then happy to help you out!
@@mandiangumd hi I was wondering if a bachelor in biology will allow me to write the national board exam to become a medical lab technologist? I also live in Canada.
@@ivyk378 Hey! Unfortunately you need to graduate from a CSMLS approved program in order to write the board exam.
@@mandiangumd Hi, does this mean that one cant get a job without getting certified ?
@@chenni4127 Hey! Unfortunately it’s illegal to be a medical laboratory technologist without the certification because it’ll be malpractice so if you are in a program that isn’t med lab certified you could finish your degree and then take another med lab science course to qualify for the board exam. Michener in Toronto is the best option for people in that scenario because it’s only 2 years, I believe.
Sorry to say, where are the safety glasses/goggles xD haha sorry. But great job! :)
This is pretty cool I wrounder if I could do this as a job
