Medical Laboratory Assistant Clinical Site Ideas

The Medical Laboratory Assistant Clinical Site Idea List is a helpful starting point for exploring potential clinical opportunities. It includes examples of the types of sites that typically host students, such as hospitals, clinics, community health centers, private practices, and specialty care facilities. While not exhaustive, it’s meant to inspire your outreach and help you think creatively about where your clinical experience could take place. Be sure to research each site, tailor your communication, and follow any application or inquiry instructions they provide.

How to Use:

Step One: Conduct an internet search of the sites in this list to identify organizations near you.

Step Two: Visit the sites in person and ask to speak with the contacts recommended in this guide.

Step Three: Inform the site of your certification requirements and ask if they would be able to host you.

Step Four: If the site requests to speak with a representative from MedCerts OR if they ask questions that you cannot answer, ask if it would be okay to have MedCerts reach out to them and complete the Clinical Site Information Form in your LMS Clinical Pathway.

Step Five: Add site to your Clinical/Job Search Tracker and continue to repeat steps 1-4 until you have successfully secured your clinical site.
