    This is my FAVORITE explanation of what we do in a video under seven minutes. It's hard to figure out what to say and what to leave for an advanced explanation. Rad Techs do SO much in the healthcare arena that most people have no idea how much we do.

    I have a question for anyone in this field. I'd like to transition into a healthier career that involves lots of specialized skills but also a fair bit of physical work in a clean environment and I hear rad tech might fit the bill. How much standing, walking and moving about in a hospital setting do rad tech do in a typical shift? What about other physical duties such as setting up imaging equipment and helping to move patients physically (covid safely of course)?

    • @cocogoat7667

      Boii u don't how physically demanding this job is!! haha prepare urself to not only be standing on ur feet the whole day without resting sometimes but u move patients a lot- and so u need to ensure ur back isnt compromised as u transfer. Your job is basically to quickly and efficiently take people's xrays as much as it demands.

    Pay for rad techs varies widely depending on where you live and the corporate culture there. Be sure and look into it before you spend two years in school and pass your registry only to find out you’ll never make as much as a registered nurse.

      @ManyThingsYT Рік тому +2

      Hi, to answer your question, most rad tech programs actually ask during the admissions process if you work, as they strongly recommend that students don’t work at all during the two year program because between the classroom instruction and clinical experience, it totals the time of a full time job on a weekly basis. Hope this answers that.

    I see that in most countries they work 8
    hours a day or 40 hours a week, in my country is 6 hours a day or 30 hours a week, and you can work 12 hours a day but then you have more rest days.
    My question is why do they work 40 hours in a week?
    They try to do it in our country too, the reason is newer devices have less radiation.
    And then someone is released from work because of radiation, we cannot give blood because we are in the radiation zone, etc.
