How does your OR on call work?

By

At my hospital we only have three X-ray techs who do surgery. 1. 7a-3:30p 2. 8a-4:30p 3. 3p-11p

1&2 take turns being on call during the week and we all three rotate on call weekends. Whoever is 2 is on call therefore if there is something after 4:30 (within 30-45 min) or a case runs later than 4:30 we are instructed to stay until we finish, meaning we stay on the clock as regular rate and not on call rate. Is that right? One day I had a case start at 5 and they kept telling me doctor is here patient is about to come up and it took them toll 5:45pm to actually start the case and I didn’t get out till 9pm. I was told if I had clocked out then clocked back in I would get in trouble because that’s not the way they do it here. But the nurses in OR will clock out at their shift end time then clock back in if they have to stay why is it different for us? I can’t help but feel like I’m being ripped off.

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

By
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

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.
