Part time rad tech’s/ parents who are rad tech’s

By

I am seriously considering applying to the Rad Tech program at my local community college. My question is are there any parents or people who do this job part time and how do you like it? I have considered this as a career before but even more so now that I am a mom. It seems to be one of the only careers that you can do part time and make decent money. Nursing is a no go for me as it seems way to stressful, I don’t like that nursing is a very broad scope. I get burned out very easily so it’s important to me to have a career that is flexible and I’m not required to work 40 hours a week. I want to be able to have days at home with my son and to do errands and housework. If you work part time, what is your schedule like? If you have children, how is work life balance? Also what setting do you work in and do you enjoy it? I’m looking for a laid back setting preferably doing more routine imaging and may train for CT or MRI. As I stated before I get stressed and burned out very easily so not looking to be in a trauma environment or anything of that sort. Any advice and experiences are appreciated!

I got into the Rad Tech program!

By
I just want to share with you that I finally got into the program at our local community college and i’m starting this summer. For context, I’m already 30yo with a prior BS degree and decided on a career change. During the pandemic until this semester, I took my time to take all the pre-reqs and GEs required while working. I also volunteered at a hospital for over a year. It was optional due to COVID, but I still did it to get the brownie points. I finally applied last March 2023 and received good news last Friday. The program is based on a pointing system, so I think having good grades really mattered. It was my first time applying and the only program I applied to. I didn’t know it was possible to get in on your first try because of all of the stories I’ve been reading, so don’t lose hope because it’s possible! Wishing everyone who’s applying this year good luck. You can do this! If you have questions, I will do my best to answer them 😊 also if you have tips on how to survive this ...

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/

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/
