How do I change my career to become an Ultrasound Technician specializing in prenatal care?

I'm 32 years old with an undergraduate degree in Communication Studies and Fine Arts. I took a course in Front-end Development a few years back and have been working in corporate offices for the past few years. I like the tech aspect of what I do but am feeling unfullfilled by my career choice and hate the corporate culture.I recently had a baby and was very interested in all things ultrasound that related to my pregnancy. I adored my prenatal clinic and realized I would love working in one and working with pregnant women. I want to change careers and become an Ultrasound Technician. The course I found in Toronto says they require either clinic experience or a degree in Kinesiology. Is it possible for me?

I got into the Rad Tech program!

I just want to share with you that I finally got into the program at our local community college and i’m starting this summer. For context, I’m already 30yo with a prior BS degree and decided on a career change. During the pandemic until this semester, I took my time to take all the pre-reqs and GEs required while working. I also volunteered at a hospital for over a year. It was optional due to COVID, but I still did it to get the brownie points. I finally applied last March 2023 and received good news last Friday. The program is based on a pointing system, so I think having good grades really mattered. It was my first time applying and the only program I applied to. I didn’t know it was possible to get in on your first try because of all of the stories I’ve been reading, so don’t lose hope because it’s possible! Wishing everyone who’s applying this year good luck. You can do this! If you have questions, I will do my best to answer them 😊 also if you have tips on how to survive this ...

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
