Hello,

 

Just wanted to introduce myself to this very knowledgeable group. I am a Med Tech with my current title being Lead Technical Specialist. I have been a Tech for many years, but the Tech Spec thing only since May.

 

I am especially interested in the Blood Bank section as that is an area I feel our Lab could use some additional expertise.

 

Thanks to all for so freely sharing your knowledge and experience.

 

 

Hi KAPMT, and welcome to this fantastic site.

Yes, there are a knowledgable bunch of people on here, all willing to share what they know, and I have found their posts invaluable.

Being a tech specialist is an interesting position. The technical stuff, I have found, is probably the easiest portion of the job. Working with and advising other staff, the the rainbow spectrum of

personalities encountered, and becoming more intimately involved with regulatory issues and CE

are the parts which I've found most demanding. Really, good luck to you. Remain humble, and regard

every person with whom you work as someone who can teach you.

I agree with you Pavel that the staff issues are difficult. Our lab is fortunate to have many experienced techs but those personalities can sometimes be challenging. I am enjoying being able to learn more about regulatory issues and thank you for your advice.

How true, Pavel.......how true!!

Donna
