Your institution needs to have another look at CLIA/CAP requirements.
Here's a link to the CLIA competency brochure that explains it in an approachable format:

To perform competency, you need to be a technical supervisor, which for immunohematology requires a doctor. The technical supervisor can delegate competency to a general supervisor. In high complexity testing environments (all blood bank is high complexity) to be a general supervisor you only need an associates degree and two years experience of high complexity testing. Truth be told you don't even need an associates but can meet qualification with a long list of other comparable training/education.
CAP follows CLIA guidelines for general supervisor qualifications (it doesn't spell them all out, but it couldn't because there are a dozen pages of grandfather clauses or alternate pathways) and competency assessment performance. Feel free to message me and I'll ramble on at greater length, if it will help you.
