Why Do Other Medical Professionals Hate Rad Techs?

I'm not sure if this is just my hospital, or an isolated thing, but i've heard it elsewhere from other techs. I work in x-ray, usually in the ER, and all of the nurses act like it's a chore for them when im there to do an exam with a portable, or take the patient to the table for imaging. They literally scoff and act like my job is the most unnecessary thing in the whole place, regardless of patient condition. I've seen this happen on the floor as well, and I just don't get why they think that we're so useless.

This all came to a head when a local charity bought lunch for the ER staff, and when i went to go have a bite, a HUC all but snatched it from my hands and told me it was for first responders only and radiology wasn't supposed to have any. I just do not understand the hate for RT's, what gives?

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.
