[Histonet] Workload
From: | "Heckford, Karen - SMMC-SF" |
Hello Everyone, I was wondering if someone could give me some feedback on
some questions. Do you think 80-100 cassettes a day is too much for one
tech in a 8 hour period? We are looking at only a few special stains and
probably not a lot of recuts. No IHC's. I am trying to figure out schedules
and perhaps hiring a part timer. H&E will be continuous feed autostainer
and special stains will be done by hand. If you did have 2 techs. could
they reasonably get 80-100 cassettes done from embedding to
coverslipped(done by hand) in 4 hours. I am right now a one person show
thinking about expanding.
Cheers,
