Histotechnician Job Description
Pursuing a career as a histotechnician allows you to work in a health-related field as a key member of the lab team. While serving as a specialized medical lab worker, you'll be responsible for receiving, processing and preparing a variety of tissue samples and specimens.
These prepared samples will then be analyzed by the pathologist, who will use them for either diagnostic or research purposes.
Job Responsibilities and Duties
On a typical day, you'll be working alongside pathologists and lab managers as you turn various tissue samples into microscopic slides. This can be done by processes ranging from dying the sample to highlight any abnormalities to surrounding the tissue with paraffin wax.
While a traditional histotechnician role involves staying in one position, working as a traveler allows you to explore and pursue your love for adventure. You'll have set timeframes for working in one location before moving on to your next location. Because your career path will put you on the road throughout the year, you'll be exposed to new settings and situations, allowing you to grow in your knowledge and skills as a healthcare professional.
