I have three Histology Assistants that have been trained in the
accessioning and cytology prep areas.  They log specimens, label
cassettes and slides, stand with the pathologists, perform frozen
sections, do all the cytology prep and staining for gyn and non gyn
specimens, coverslip, run the microwave processor, changing some
staining set ups and filing slides.
     I have two sites, two assistants at one site, one assistant at the
other. They perform a wonderful time saving value for the histology lab.
The histotech shortage made me find another way of filling vacancies.
