Any medical lab technologists?



Recommended Posts

So I'm the Manager of Medical Microbiology in a region of the UK. I am interested in moving over to the USA. Can anyone give advice about the governing bodies there? In the UK i'm HCPC and IBMS accredited. I have my MSc and additional Specialist and Managerial qualifications so I'm sure I have plenty transferable skills. Is there a central site to search for jobs or do I have to look state by state or even hospital by hospital? Is there anywhere you think Scottish people would be welcome or better staying away from?Thanks in advance for your advice. X

So I know this is old but the state in which I live is on the east coast I live in Baltimore Maryland. Maryland has very large university systems good schools doctors and you experience every season also we have beaches mountains lakes and oceans we do not get earthquakes or tornadoes although we get the occasional hurricane

Look into Wake Forest Baptist Health in Winston-Salem, NC. Huge hospital system and teaching university.

Lived here for 18 years now (moved from NY) and love it. Great location.

I am a laboratory technologist, and we are always looking for more employees here in Fairbanks, Alaska. The weather is a bit extreme, both in temperature and in sunlight (dark in winter, light all night in summer). Considering your credentials, I am sure they would be able to help you figure out how they compare to American credentials and get you started. Most states in the USA do not require a license, just a Board of Registry with the proper education.

Texans love Scotsmen! (although it's hard to compete with Alaska!)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
