What is your salary like as a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer/Ultrasound Tech (I know this will vary by location/experience)?

I’m being pressured to pursue nursing instead of sonography because it pays more/offers more advancement BUT from my research sonographers make more than nurses (in Arizona) and I have no desire to be a NP, PA, MD, or DO. At most I’d like to get into management in the future but I’m only 20 years old and have no experience so that won’t happen for awhile.

I am on a waitlist for the only accredited sonography program in Arizona so by the time I get in it’ll be 2023, 2024 or 2025 even. In which I assume sonography salaries will go up by then.

I really like sonography and my dream job is to be a pediatric sonographer in a children’s hospital.

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/

Radiology program

I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
