C-Arm tips

Hey all, I’m back in the OR after a long hiatus due to my schedule. I’m looking for tips and advice on gaining confidence with using the C-Arm frequently.

I know that as I do OR continuously it will become more fluid and natural but, right now, I feel uncertain about it (I had 2 days of training and was thrown in full time). I’m trying my hardest and do my best to show confidence because floundering can be the kiss of death with certain docs. I do communicate with the providers when needed & an building a good rapport.

We use Siemens, 3 flat plates and 3 different rounds, case and doctor preference dependent. A different round for ERCP’s and bronch’s.

Any advice for centering, positioning, etc? I’m open to anything. Thank you!

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.

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.
