What other jobs can radiation therapist transition to? I'm wanting to get an associates degree but I'm wondering if I get bored what else I can do with that degree.
you can only do radiography if you do a program for it. There is a state licensure for diagnostic radiography and a separate exam for radiation therapy . So unless you go to a school that has radiography built into the program prior completing radiation therapy then you can only work as a radiation therapist . I went through radiography first then chose radiation therapy
Is there a lot of math in this career compared to other radiology fields like MRI or Ultrasound or RT? How much and how complicated? Is math used in school or also on the job?
Very big on physics. Reduction in radiation beams. Calibration and patient position does have the need for quick math computation. Such as reading at 72.3 cm and needing a 12.6 cm shift right. Does the number move up or down? This on top of talking to patient and other radiation therapist. Its alot to handle.
I was wondering, should I get an Associates or a bachelors in radiation therapy? I feel like I should get an associates degree but I don’t know if I’ll actually get a job or not
I would say Associates, just to save money and start working immediately. A large portion of radiation therapists just have an associates degrees. But, ultimately up to you. Good luck!
@@lacigalvanssleepmeditation8160 well some jobs may require you to have an associate degree but usually no, if i where u i rather get the associate degree and certification
We have a lot of oncology centers where I live because there's a lot of sunlight, so melanoma is VERY common here. I was considering becoming a radiation therapist or maybe a physician's assistant, but I'm not 100% sure which I should do...
I've done the song and dance where you go to college, get the degree, then there are NO JOBS available. Are there jobs in this field, a demand for skilled workers? Or is it another shot in the dark where you get the degree and it's nothing but silence at the end of the application?
I would say there is demand. This is a small, niche occupation (only around 20k employed). With small niche occupations, you have to be open to moving across state lines to find the job opportunities. Unlike say registered nurses, who can find employment pretty much anywhere.
Come to Cali..their hiring radio therapists starting 50-60$ an hr like no tomorrow. I smile when i see posts, “i cant find a job and i got a degree in radio therapy”. Like you living in a desert or what??
@@BuiltForSin0 Yeah, because anyone can just pick up, move 3000 miles, and ditch their families. I live in the Midwest and I need job realities HERE. Not 3000 miles away.
@@DeadlyChinchilla Well if your looking for easy salary in the medical field with little to no job shortage. Perhaps nursing is more suitable. if you live in an area thats short on oncologists, or cancer treatment centers. Just my opinion.
I’ve recently been accepted into the program and the director literally took the time to warn me that finding a job may be difficult and even completing clinicals would be difficult due to Covid and limiting spacing. I would hate to have to move to California from Georgia because the cost of living basically crushes this high salary that you speak of.

Many radiation therapist I've came across have had/have cancer. Do you know what the statistics are? I'm almost done with my program but it's starting to be a bit alarming to me.
I have a right hand with limited motor skills. I can lift people, but I type one handed. I’m looking for a new career that doesn’t rely on two good hands. I’m still curious if this disability would hinder my capability here.
Honestly the only hardship in 2022 is the insurance companies and corporate slags want everything on computer... But if you can type you can type, right?
If I have an associates degree in a different field can I still do a certification program for radiation therapy? I want to switch my career path. Being a paralegal isn’t what I want anymore
I’m currently licensed as a physical therapist assistant and recently started thinking about going the rad tech route. The possibility for a higher salary is appealing. How did the transition go for you?
@@ashackle01 Would u mind telling me what schooling u took or are taking to become a radiation therapist? I've read it only takes an associates degree to become one but i can't find any schools that offer a radiation therapy class
I’m really interested in becoming a radiation therapist. It’s kinda my dream drop. Do you know of any colleges that take on students who want to be in this profession? And how’s the work load in college?

From amu
I just read that it has become an over saturated field due to how many graduates are going into the field? Should I still consider it?
The longer you wait, the more saturated a field becomes. If it's something you're geniunely interested in; go for it.
People are more aware of the good jobs now. Even tech is becoming oversaturated but millions of people still go for it. I’d say go for it
