Experience with falling behind in clinical?

By

I am starting a radiography technician program next week, with clinicals starting a couple weeks from now. This is my first semester so I'm obviously a complete newbie. I have been working towards getting into this program for the past 18+ months, and then just over a month ago I fell and broke my ankle... This week is 4 weeks post op ORIF (plate, 10 screws plus syndesmotic screw) and I'm hoping to be allowed to start weight bearing this coming Monday at my next follow up. Issue is, I cannot start clinical until I'm walking completely unassisted and able to help lift/move patients, perform CPR, catch falling patients, etc. I have spoken to the program director and she said if I miss more than a couple of weeks (first clinical rotation is 16 hrs/week) than I'll have to make it up over winter break, which is not a big issue for me, except that I'm freaking out about falling behind in school. I have a ton of anxiety to begin with and this recovery is killing me because there's no way to plan since the timeline is a bit different for everyone, and I'm so nervous that I'm going to be completely screwed getting into clinical late. I'm just wondering if anyone here has had a similar experience and/or any advice?

Onetonline salary search change?

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.
