The Hospital Specimen Preparation Technician (HSPT)  is responsible for daily preparation of patient specimens from hospital clients.  The HSPT must demonstrate a mastery of all functions of specimen preparation for submission to multiple Quest Diagnostics facilities, as well as Rapid Response Laboratories (RRL).  The HSPT works with minimal direction. Additionally, since many changes do occur from day to day, great flexibility on the part of the HSPT is required.  The majority of  HSPT work is on the day shift, but flexibility is required for weekends, holidays, on-call, and overtime based on client requirements.
