*LETTER TO THE MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE COUNCIL OF NIGERIA*

Dear Registrar,

*Solution to the conflict between Med Lab technician and Med lab Scientist*

It is crystal clear that the scientists and technicians are not on good terms, the technician doesn't participate in any council program because they aren't carried along, and the technicians have been very ridiculed and looked down at which is a problem and anguish to the technician.

Even on-field and benchwork, the way technicians have been treated with frivolity are quite alarming, and it ought to be looked into.

Professions such as pharmacy, nursing, and dental place so much significance on their junior cadre way more than the Med lab Scientists placed on technicians and assistants.

The Technicians have asked for the upgrade of their certificate to HND standard so that they can be referred to as Medical laboratory Technologists but till downs time the council is still denying the technicians of their request.

Most technicians apply for Direct Entry into the universities to upgrade to BMLS but universities resist their admission, they rather admit their JUPEB or IJMB students than the technicians. A handful of them even admitted Bsc microbiology, biochemistry, and HND SLT to BMLS programme instead of Medical lab technician. In all honesty, they are rendering the technician's certificate useless.

Dear Registrar, with all due respect, these are my suggestions sir:

I'll advise the council to cancel and stop the medical laboratory technician program in all schools of health.

Give all individuals with technician certificates 10 to 15 years to upgrade their certificates to BMLS

Partner or affiliate with the National Open University just as the nursing profession did.

Packed cell volume (PCV), also known as hematocrit, measures the percentage of red blood cells in a blood sample. It's a way to determine the proportion of blood volume occupied by red blood cells. A PCV test is a simple blood test that can be used to diagnose and monitor various conditions related to red blood cell levels.
