I just finished my microbiology rotation. Just chemistry and blood bank left to go and then graduation and the BOC exam left. I’m so close to being done. I absolutely love all your videos, I wish I knew you in person. ❤ 🎃Happy Halloween 🎃
I absolutely love your channel!! I have been a med tech for 1.5 yrs and I happen to find your channel right before I start my first med tech travel assignment. I have been feeling nervous because it's a new hospital and new department (blood bank), but watching your videos really added some motivation and ease to my spirit. I'm motivated to learn more in the lab and gain balance on my life outside of work too. Thank you for being you :)
Good luck on your first travel assignment!! 💕 It will be such a great opportunity to gain new skills. Definitely let me know how it goes in the future! Yesss I am striving to find a better work life balance with these hospital schedules 😂
@@domilarae yes gurl we can’t live out getting some balance because you know we be drownin in work and then expected to somehow stay afloat when called to do a double shift😅😅😭😂
I love your videos. Been looking for vids on MLTs in the US showing their work and life routine and landing on you a few months ago has been a blessing, especially with my dream to one day immigrate and work in the US.
How are the hours? I mean are you offered overtime and bonuses and shift differential for night shift and weekend warrior s? You may have videos that answer these questions. I apologize if you already answered. Thank you for videos!
The hours are good and really flexible, but it just depends on what you want to work. I do 3x12s day shift now. My old job was nights with shift diffs, including weekends, definitely overtime available with the shortage lol. Sign on bonuses available with most hospitals nowadays with a 1-2 yr commitment
Hey Dominique, I just start watching your videos and was glad that you have been letting us know how it is working as a MLS. I've been having such as a hard time finding someone who shares their experience as a MLS. Just curious to know what do you find the most difficult thing to deal with while working in lab.Thank you so much for this informative video.
I don’t think there’s too many things that are really difficult. There’s challenges that come with encountering problems for the first time or performing certain tests for the first time, if that makes sense. But exposure to the more difficult tasks really helps with confidence, practice is key!
hello Dominique, I am a Nigerian MSc student studying Forensic science. Is it possible to take the ASCPi exam while in the USA to later on apply for a job after my MSc program
Hi, I'm all the way in Trinidad 🇹🇹 I'm actually starting out as MLA and looking into where I can head to next I have been leading to more labs and I came across your videos for the first time 😁 I would hope we can communicate on another platform if that would be ok with you. Email is fine 🙂 I just have so much questions and then I'm thinking I can learn a lot from you too.
Hey! I hope you’re having a great experience as an MLA. I’d love to help with any questions you have. Feel free to email me (laranique04@gmail.com) or message me on instagram(@domilarae)

@@domilarae thank you for the response. What you said makes perfect sense. Will be tuning in for the next video….

They usually require a degree in medical laboratory science. You can contact the ASCP board to see if your degree and courses will be accepted.
@@domilarae i have a medical laboratory science degree from Nigeria
Okay, then yes, it should be possible for you to take the ASCPi exam in the US
@@domilarae thank you so much for this information, by the way i am a big fan of your YT videos 🤩
Hi! Just wondering do you work in the US or Canada? And what kind of lab do you work at? Your videos have been very helpful to me!😊
I work in the US in a hospital-based laboratory. Glad the content has been helpful!
