Is radiology technology really for me?

By

Hey guys,

I am 18 years old, and I just finished my first semester in my Diagnostic Imaging program. I did well, but honestly I was miserable in it. I feel like I have the ability to do it, but I really don't think that I will like this as a career. I went into it because I knew it was possible to find part time work, and it pays decently. Now I feel like I made a mistake. However, I don't even know what else I would like to pursue. I feel like I don't know what I want. Also, I am more of an introverted person, so speaking to people all the time really doesn't appeal to me, and I thought this would be a "clean" career, but after leaning about it, surprise surprise, it isn't.

I don't really know what I am asking...but I guess I'm trying to figure out if it gets better? Or if I hate it now, should I probably just leave and not waste anymore time because it gets worse?

Also, I keep on thinking that this is a "you're guaranteed a job" after you graduate kind of profession, but is that truly the case? I live near Montreal.

One more thing, what other things other than working in a hospital can you do with a degree in this? I feel like it's mainly hospital work, which is pretty discouraging.

Onetonline salary search change?

By
Did this change? I am having a hard time finding the same lists I saw 2 months ago. https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/29-2034.00#AdditionalInformation https://www.onetonline.org/link/localwages/29-2034.00?st=OR&p=hourly I used to be able to see wage by area and sort it by state and see the differences per state and per city in every state. I can't seem to find this same list anymore. I can see a bell curve but I can't sort by state or wage or anything. Thanks! submitted by /u/xxDamnationxx [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/h9oqup/onetonline_salary_search_change/

Radiology program

By
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.
