Greetings from Sydney,Australia

Hi all

My name is Rosemary & I'm in charge of the Blood Bank in a meduim (~300 bed) size teaching hospital on the fringe of the Sydney CBD.

The hospital specialises in stem cell transplants & cardicac/lung transplants. We also have a busy Emergency department.

We process about 50-60 type and screen specimens a day & XM around 900 packed cells a month. Our group & antibody screens are routinely performed on the automated AutoVue analyser.

I really enjoy visting this site to hear the opinions of other workers in the BB from fields a far. I find it a great source of information seeing many of the topics/problems are ones we also have to deal with.

In Australia we have Guidelines rather than Standards for accreditation in good laboratory practices. Most of these are based on the AABB standards. And being an AABB member, I have the Technical Manual as the primary part of our BB Lab reference library.

Looking forward to more "education" on the BBTalk forum :)
