MedStaff Inc. Employer Reviews

I really enjoyed working through medstaff and always enjoyed my interactions with my Boss Sylvia very pleasant and easy to approach and talk to.

Drive to Assignment place. Filling Venipuncture orders. Taking to back lab for testing. This was a different type of lab for me. The co-workers that i worked with here were helpful in many ways. There is no hard part of the job for me. I learned how to work a draw station and maintain a clean area.

I was able to work in several Doctors offices such as General Medicine, Opthalmology, and Pediatrics, I also worked as a temporary school nurse in both high school and elementary schools. During the summer, I worked as a camp nurse for adolescents with developmental disabilities. I learned different skills in each area.

Unfortunately working in the OR, no days are "typical". You may be doing Ortho cases for a week or two straight, but then you may not do another from a bit. One day could be super slow and you are cleaning to keep busy, other days, they have 4rooms runnung late and at least one of them is staffed with Overtime staff.

Short breaks, long days sometimes, – more... some older equipment, management, eh?. There are a few lazy full time staff there, and yet the management allows them to continue to do their job lasily, and yet the people who actually work, work alot harder to pick up the slack. – less

The staff at Medstaff kept me very busy working in a variety of medical offices. They were very understanding if I was unable to accept the assignment. They went beyond the call of duty to make sure they "matched" me to each assignment.

A day on any given registry assignment can be very similar. All who have had the opportunity to work for a registry can easily relate.
One know's that the dependable thing is the undependable. I learned to be very adaptable to any given situation. I learned to take each assignment with an optimistic hope. A good day can unexpectedly happen any where. – more... I learned that working with all cultures can be a benefit when it comes to enhancing social skills, and makes life more colorful. The hardest thing about my job was not having a consistent schedule. I enjoyed most gaining the respect of the hospital that I happened to be sent to frequently. Or even gaining the respect by the end of the shift. I like that I felt appreciated as a diligent worker. – less

The most enjoyable part of my job was meeting people and giving them jobs.

A typical day; Clock in.If any phlebotomist has left specimens or are there check them in.They come in throughout the day so this is an ongoing process.Every specimen must be accounted for. All the specimens are in a rack mixed up and the phleb will have a stack of requisitions.Takes anywhere from 10 min to 30 min to check one phleb in.Had over 15 phlebotomist. – more... After reqs and specimens checked orders must be entered in computer system.Help with this if possible.Match labels with specimens and process them to go on instruments.Load instruments as needed.Freeze and refrigerate specimens as required for sendout.If not familiar with a test must research the handling procedure then process.Account for all sendouts around 430p.Takes about a hour to check all specimen off the manifest.Pack specimens in 2 coolers to be shipped.One refrigerated and one for frozen.Print out shipping label and schedule pickup.Finish up with any afternoon specimens. Could take 15 min to 45min.Depends on how many specimens had not been ordered or had no order at all.Help enter rejections into computer so they may be recollected as soon as possible.Restock my area and clean up.Clock out.
Management is very poor.The managers are immature and hostile.
Coworkers are great.Easy to get along with for most part.
Hardest part of this job was avoiding conflict with the hostile management and the unethical practices.
The most enjoyable part was learning new things from our lead tech and having fun with my coworkers as we work. – less
