  • in this video : join me for another night shift vlog and a few days in my life. We went to the aquarium for the "sips under the sea" halloween event - spent the night in Ocean Voyage & went on a behind the scenes tour! I also went shopping and purchased a new lens for my canon camera.

    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 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.

    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 :)

    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.

    • @domilarae
      @domilarae  Год назад +2

      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!

    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!

    • @domilarae
      @domilarae  Год назад +3

      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

      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.

    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.
