i had a nurse request a credit for a t4 test...i asked her why would she want it credited?...she stated that the doctor specifically requested a FREE T4!...LOL

hi, i am interested in obtaining your check list, but actually i need some help with the formula to determine how many audits to perform monthly. (reference to standards?) i supervise a bloodbank in a 250 bed facility that transfuses somthing over 4000 units a year. furthermore, i am the only dayshift blood bank tech, so my time management has become an issue. i perform all the supervisor duties (inventory,blood utilization,trouble shooting,pm,all dayshift bench work...ect) it is a one man operation here. i am looking the streamline various procecdures, so i can work in a more efficent mannner without impacting patient safety. we are in tube testing ,but are looking to automate (im not holding my breath...lol) to ease the workflow. any ideas to shorten time spent on audits and utilization will be appreciated...thanks in advance. email is mrbull_777@yahoo.com
