## H1: Laboratory Staffing — MLT, MLS, Phlebotomy

Lab is the quietest staffing crisis in healthcare. The workforce is aging out faster than training programs replace it, and a short-staffed lab slows every clinical decision in the building.

Factor places laboratory professionals into hospital labs, reference labs, and facility-based draw stations across New England.

### Roles we place

- Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) — ASCP or AMT certified

- Medical Laboratory Scientist (MLS / MT) — ASCP or AMT certified

- Phlebotomist — [certification requirements vary by state and employer]

- [Histotechnologist / Cytotechnologist — add if you place these]

### Settings we cover

Hospital clinical labs · Reference and outreach labs · Skilled nursing draw stations · [Correctional health] · [Blood banks]

### What we handle before day one

ASCP or AMT certification verification, state licensure where applicable, department-specific competency assessment — chemistry, hematology, microbiology, blood bank, molecular — and CLIA personnel qualification documentation.

### A note on CLIA

Laboratory personnel qualifications are federally regulated under CLIA, and testing personnel must meet specific education and experience requirements by test complexity. We document CLIA qualification for every lab professional we place, so your lab director isn't reconstructing it during an inspection.
