There is nothing wrong with having a lab assistant changing stainers, processors, or coverslipping, as long as they are properly trained-but tech work is a no no.

Subject: [Histonet] Lab assistant working in histology


Does anyone know of a regulation (CLIA, CAP, JACHO) preventing a lab
assistant from working in histology (embedding, cutting, staining,
coverslipping and changing solutions)?  Thanks!
