Lab technicians must have a strong background in the sciences, as much of their daily work will deal with chemistry, biology, and physiology. Having knowledge of these subjects is a requirement, but having a passion for them will make the technician stand out. When technicians have a passion for the work, they will perform their job with more success and enthusiasm.
Lab testing and its results can be complicated, and this requires great attention to detail. Sometimes lab testing requires many intricate steps that need to be meticulously performed in order to get them done correctly. When it comes to these tests, accuracy is everything. Lab technicians that have a great attention to detail will make fewer mistakes and have a higher rate of accomplishing their work tasks.
Performing work days consistency is also essential for the work of a lab technician. Much of the work they perform is repetitive, as similar lab tests can be performed all day long if the client needs that. Being consistent is critical in ensuring that the tests are all done accurately and in a timely manner. Remaining focused on these tasks will also help to improve their consistency and routine.
One of the other qualities of a great lab technician is the desire to help others. Because they work in a lab setting, they are actually critical members of the diagnostic team, even though you as a patient will likely never interact with the technician running your tests. Having an innate desire to help others, even if you don't communicate with them, is a great quality for lab technicians. Those who want to make a difference in the world are set above the rest.
These are just a few of the qualities that separate great medical lab technicians from the rest. When you staff your lab facility, you want to trust the best for your business.
