I think nursing schools and med schools should implement at least some basic lab knowledge.

As an MLS student it worries me how doctors or nurses behave when something doesn’t go their way, when MLS’ are just doing their job and applying what they learned. I feel like med and nursing schools should have at least some understanding on pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical errors. I don’t know much about what they actually study but if it’s implemented now then that’s great. But from a lot of posts online and experiences irl I’ve heard, it feels like it’s not. It is so so crucial because not only will it hugely affect patient results, but also affects the relationship and trust between MLS and other medical professionals. Drama and abuse is the last thing anyone wants in a workplace, yes we are here to make money, but it’s not impossible to be understanding and a good person.
