Looking Ahead: My Plan for After School.

      Let me start this post by saying that I am operating under the assumption that I finish the program at Rochester General Hospital (RGH) and pass my ASCP certification test, which hopefully isn't too brash an assumption to make.  I think that having a clear, definite goal in mind is very helpful when working through things, especially school.  For me, the goal is to get a job at the Lipson Cancer Center, a division of RGH.  While I think that any sort of work in the medical technology field would be very satisfying to me, I feel that working in a place like that would be particularly so.  I feel like the work would be very fulfilling and that it would not get repetitious since treatment and detection methods are developing rapidly and will certainly continue to do so for the foreseeable future.  I realize that it will require hard work to get there and that I may not be able to work there straight out of the program, but I hope that one day in the not-too-distant future I can work there.  Below, I talk more about the cancer center.
