ORRRRR how bout when lab lies about losing the sample and someone else from lab (usually the lab supervisor) finally admits they lost it and have now located it after hours or searching and stalling. Very rare but happens.

An OR nurse threatened my license and my job over a missing coag tube. We tore the lab up looking for it. When I called back to ask if she was sure that it had been sent, lo and behold it was still in the tube system. Mind you, I had 2 small babies at home that my job and my license were providing for. 🫠

*came to your page to comment instead* Damn "that other" TikTok was really bar for bar 😭 But yeah this is so real. One nurse brought us a specimen after he had already went home, and tried to have us run it... talkin about he found it in his pocket when he was changing out of his scrubs so he drove back to the hospital 😒

When I call about a missing specimen I know I immediately become the #1 suspect. I’m like can we check around first and then it magically comes up the tube station 5 seconds later 😭

Or it gets sent to the wrong department even though they “know they sent it to the lab.”

Literally had an ICU nurse scream at us last night, demanded we tell her all the chemistry specimens that were sent in the last 30 minutes, all for it to come down the tube station an hour later. 🫩

That’s why we made them bring it down and sign it in out specimen log with patient name, date, time who brought it and then we checked them for labels with time date and then we signed the book it was received. Nipped that in the bud. They didn’t mind bringing them down cause they went out to smoke before going back to the floor.

The nurse even took my name to report me, turns out she had it the whole time and drop it in person later on. I didn’t even get an apology for being on the phone for about 10 minutes while she was yelling at me🥺

And we’re always the bad guys for rejecting samples when they’ve done something wrong on their end. Like no I can’t accept the blood in the wrong tube

that is exactly why you should wait until the tube leaves and then you can walk away.

even worse is being a phleb, DEFINITELY sending Stat labs down, but then never getting spun or run because the boomer who works desk in the lab just left them in the tube station for 2 hours, and lab didn't know that's where they were (checked the racks, centrifuges, every other damn thing). so I gotta physically go down to the lab, like I don't have more stats to draw to do the goddamn processor's job

That happened to me…two nurses were swearing on everything that was holy they sent it. Later another nurse strolls up to the pneumatic tube and sees it sitting there. He calls me in the lab and tells me he saw these samples just laying there. I was so 😡
