That there are plenty of med techs out there. The problem is that the hospitals keep you short staffed intentionally. Our hospital laid 3 of them off. I ordered a crucial STAT test on a newborn the other day. There is ONE lab tech during the night. ONE. For an entire hospital. My stat order took EIGHT hours to get. The last time that happened, I had to ship the newborn for an exchange transfusion...which is why I put the test STAT this time instead of routine. Anyways...I wrote incident reports on both situations and recommended to my colleagues that they do the same. You guys won't get help unless we complain about it--and it isn't anything personal.
