Need some input/pep talk Rad Techs

Hey everyone! I am a first year rad-tech student, and I am looking for help, advice, and/or a pep talk. So, this is my first semester in clinical, up until this past week I was doing pretty well. I was enjoying clinic, learning new things, comping on several exams. That came to a halt this past week when I went to an ortho clinic. I had been looking forward to it, as I had heard nothing but good things about this site. Well, I get there and everything is soooo different to the hospital setting. I was expecting this but not to this extent. They have the big fancy x-ray systems that moves the bucky and tube with a push of a button. I kinda got use to that (even though I can tell I like the normal DR system with a wall and table Bucky waaaayyyy more than this fancy contraption here), but their positioning standards have rocked my world. Going in, I was very confident in what I have comped on so far and was ready to knock out some more while I was there. I have lost confidence and have been afraid to attempt a comp on anything. I am hoping that someone here has some words of wisdom that can help get me back on track. I appreciate it! (Pardon any typos, I typed this in a hurry.)

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/
