Eligible for ASCP SBB if no donor collection?

Our blood bank does not perform donor collection. Would I still be eligible?

ASCP writes

>Donor Collection, Processing, and Testing 
Proficiency for these tasks may be demonstrated through performance, observation, or simulation
• Donor selection, preparation, and collection
• Processing and donor testing
• Component preparation for storage and administration

What would qualify for simulation?

MLS to MBA

I've been an MLS in Jersey a few years and the pay is poor and limited opportunities with this degree.

I'm considering doing an MBA, either online or part time since I can't save much as an MLS. What was your MBA experience compared to MLS?

I want to stay in the state or maybe NYC and there seems to be better work life balance and pay for business positions with an mba.

Increased false positives on Grifols vs Ortho gel

We're exploring switching to Grifols from Ortho to save costs. A sister hospital said they've seen a huge rise in false weak positives on Grifols whereas almost never on Ortho.

The grifols rep said we would get used to "ignoring" weak reactions?

What's your experience with Grifols gel vs Ortho gel?
