Thank you so much Taylor for telling your story and answering questions about echo! Congrats on everything you accomplished! You helped me tremendously on deciding echo being the right path for me. Thanks for being an inspiration!! 💖
@@lolgeselle Yesssssss!!! Speaking it into existence! No matter how hard it gets, I'm gonna keep pushing just like Taylor did! 😊Thank you so much Geselle for taking the time to create this video! 🙏🏽💖
Wow, just graduated from my cardiac/Vascular sonography program and passed my RDCS too. Still preparing for my RVT. Our school experience sounds so much alike. COVID did mess up a lot but we did it. Thanks for sharing. Good luck with everything.
Atlas, so proud of you for graduating and passing your registries despite everything! You did it!!!! Congrats and I hope you fill us in on your journey 🥰🤍
Hi! First of all congrats! Second I wanted to ask if you graduated with an associates or bachelors? I’m a high schooler and I’m wondering if there’s higher demand for people with a bachelor
@@dianagomez2405 I graduated with a bachelor degree in sonography since I completed 4 years of college prior to applying so I have two degrees, one being in biology. That being said a handful of my classmates had an associate's, which means they only completed two years of college prior to applying to the program so they now have a certificate in sonography.
Take good care of yourselves. I've been doing echo for over 28 years. The chronic repetitive motion injuries are real. I love my job, I've trained so many students, new hires, taught in a classroom setting, and a lab. It is a rewarding job, but please, please listen to your preceptors. Try to practice the best ergonomics that you can, have others sneak up on you to check your ergonomics.
Thank you for all that you do! I can't believe 28 years have gone by. You are amazing! Thank you for teaching and being an amazing role model to many. I hope to be like you one day!
I’m thinking of going back to school to for echo. I’m 45 yo. And not sure it would be a good second career for me-physically wise. Wondering if you would do it at my age? I have my BSE but don’t use it and am currently a server after going back to work.
This was so fun to watch even though I'm an echo student, I love to hear about other cardiac sonographer's journey. I wanted to add that I have seen many cardiac ultrasound studies 120+ images regularly! There so many aspects to this field that Im learning about and its constantly evolving! Yay for heart awareness month!
I’m nearing the end of my DCS program and this is very comforting! It can be hard to see the end of this journey positively but hearing Taylor’s story and insights gives me hope to pass my program, SPI and echo core exams. Much success to the both of you!
Thank you for sharing your experience, this video was so helpful. I'm 17 going to be a senior in highschool and I've been planning on becoming a echo/cardiac sonographer as my career since junior year. I'm excited to learn 😆😆
I am glad I found this video... I was so set on being a nurse but I realize I don't want to do that and have been thinking about becoming cardiac sonographer
Thank you so much for making this video!! Taylor really sounds so passionate about her echo career, and I'm really glad that there *are* health care workers out in the world that genuinely care (girl some of my L&D nurses were not so nice). Thank you for sharing this Geselle!
If it's a possibility, I'd love to see interviews of different professions in the hospital, like dieticians, speech pathologists, recreational therapists! I love the length interviews :)
Hi it's nice to hear your experience..I've been an cardiac sonographer for more than 10years here in the philippines..I can relate somehow on your experience same as you I almost quit because YEA it's hard.hahaha but it's worth it...more power to you..Godbless
Thank you for sharing I really like to hear ppl that went thru the same thing as me. I graduate at end of may and I’m stressed on doing this career in echo. I get a lot of scan time but my preceptor is so picky and it makes me cry😢 I cant be perfect right out. It make me want to quit
That's so awesome!!! I'm glad you enjoyed listening. I know it's stressful but if you put your mind to it, you can do it. They're just being hard on you! Take it all in, one day at a time, and prove you can do this! I believe in you!
Don’t quit!! Every preceptor is going to be picky because they all have their own way of doing things! You’ll gain your confidence the longer you’re in the field, and you will feel so much better when you’re on your own. Think of it as, you want your preceptor to be picky, because it shows they care. 💖 it will also help you in the long run!
@@sidology1.0 hey Sidney, I actually graduated and am now working at a major and large hospital. It’s been two weeks here I’m still a little nervous but I must’ve been good to get hired on the spot . Thanks for checking in
Loving how Geselle interviews so many diff medical professionals! I didn’t realize how many job opportunities there were apart from nurses and doctors 🥰 Def sharing these videos with my pre-med undergraduates!
Thanks for this. I'm currently enrolled in an echo program and getting ready for my 2nd semester with 1 clinical day a week. I'm so stressed about remembering the right things to do when it comes to scanning because of our lab time in the first semester (not a lot of feedback on our images, etc). How do you deal with that stress? Thanks!
Thanks for watching! You got this! I would say do all you can to get the help where you can, If you aren't getting any feedback just watch more videos on the subject matter. Definitely need to find someone who knows what they're doing to help you, maybe a classmate.. but hopefully you will have a better luck with clinical! Cause that's where you will learn a majority of your skills. With stress, take it one day at a time. Be kind to yourself. Know you are only still learning and control your mindset! You can do this! Believe in yourself. :)
HI EVERYONE! If you have ANY questions at all regarding ECHO/ echo programs, echo questions, echocardiography or cardiac sonography questions, PLEASE leave them in the comment section below for Taylor to look at or for us to get you an answer!!! I truly appreciate you guys being here and watching the video! Taylor, RDCS, will definitely reach out to you if you have any specific questions, don't forget you can add her on her social medias!! These are shown in the description box! Thank you AGAIN for being here and supporting the sonography world! Happy February! ❤️
Hello, what if as an cardiovascular grad you also want to register in fetal echo, do you register with ARDMS since CCI does not have that option? Like you would be register with CCI and ARDMS? and the SPI will need to be taken twice?
Hi Geselle & thank you and Taylor for this video. :) It gave me a bit of an insight on echocardiography. So the college closest to me is only offering concentration in cardiac and I’ve always wanted to do general. If I were to go into cardiac and get certified, how would I obtain my OBGYN credentials?
Hi naturalshae!! Yay that’s awesome you have a school near you! I have a video coming out on this topic, next! So please stay tuned for it! It talks about registries and how to get registered. You can get your OBGYN credentials if you find someone else in that field with that registry to teach you OBGYN. Your best bet though is to do general then cross train into echo. But unfortunately this process is different in all states, so see what programs offer and decide based on that!
I am a new RCS in Toronto, having hard time getting a job as I lack experience, all jobs require atleast 1 year experience is hard for a new graduate...I will appreciate your advice..thanxs
I hun! So sorry you're going through that. What is best is to talk to your clinical sites, program directors and teachers to see if they can help you find connections. Most of the time jobs are given through networking and connections. I also suggest posting in Facebook groups. Good luck!
Thank you so much for the helpful information! I was wondering if you’ve heard whether the Sonographer field is over saturated in Fort Worth, Texas. I’m considering a career change, but I’m hesitant in case it’s too competitive and there are too little jobs.
Of course!! I would say definitely look online to see if there are open opportunities right now. Remember as the years go by, people will be retiring or moving or changing jobs as well.. if you’re willing to relocate for a little while for more experience, that would be my advice, but check out the indeed and job openings to see if there are any! By the time your done with school it may be 2-4 years later down the road. If you want to also join my ultrasound discord, many students are from Texas I’m sure you can get their input! ✨
I’m interested in going back to school for echo sonography. I’ve been out of the workforce for over 4 yrs since I had my baby and we moved overseas. (My husband is active duty military) I was a research tech at a biotech but after 3 yrs felt that research isn’t for me.. too slow paced plus didn’t get paid very much. I was a biochem/cell bio major. How rigorous is the program? There are a couple of programs near me (I’m in northern VA) but one is a 4 semester long program and other is 7 semesters. I’m a mom of 2 (9 yr old and 4 yr old) .. is it too much to handle if it’s only 4 semesters? Thanks for any advice you can offer
The programs are pretty rigorous but if you have the time to study its doable! Theres a ton of people who go into it with a lot of other responsibilities, but if you have the right tools, teachers, study techniques -- it can be done.
yes, discord is a community app for people to connect and chat. you can e-mail me, found in the description boxes, join the Facebook group, or DM me on instagram.
I have to take fundamentals/conceptual physics. It's my last pre req. Did you have to take physics & did you find it to be difficult or not? I aced anatomy & physiology I & II, but I know nothing about physics. I'm not even sure what kind of math is involved. Oy
I took physics! It was a lot of concepts and formulas. Definitely just do your best to study the concepts and not just memorize it. Find a study group and talk about it, thats what helped me!
Is it super hard to do anatomy and chemistry in one semester through virtual learning? Or is it nearly impossible? What study tips you recommend with virtual learning?
Anatomy and chemistry together in one semester will truly test your study skills, especially with virtual learning. I’d say if you’re good at learning on your own, teaching yourself, in my opinion you could possibly do it. But anatomy and chemistry are both difficult classes and for me personally, I would keep them separate especially with virtual learning because I need someone to explain it super well to me. Ask yourself if you think you can handle it.. hopefully your professors are super helpful and you’re able to handle virtual learning. I just know I wouldn’t be able to, knowing what the classes entail. (But that’s just me!)
Study tips- definitely focus. Find a spot where you’re not distracted by anything. Keep the phone away/ stay studying as much as you can but in little increments. Our brains can only handle and retain so much information. I like to take little breaks in between studying. Also watching videos that explain things personally help me!
@@lolgeselle aww thanks so much. Virtual learning just feels like it will be very lonely and at times frustrating because you are all alone with the computer trying to figure a lot of things out..😩 how did you deal with being alone with all the virtual learning?
@@lolgeselle thanks so much I really was confused and needed to hear this from someone who went through it and knows the weight of each class)) definitely going to do anatomy by itself for now and drop chemistry until next semester) I wanted to kill 2 birds with one stone and finish prerequisites faster. But Oh well I guess that won’t be happening thanks to the pandemic and virtual learning challenges Haha
@@Anonymous-bc6zl unfortunately I totally get what you mean about being alone. I’d say try to find people in your classes that are willing to help you study and communicate with them to see if anyone wants to create study groups. You’re all in this together. I also have a discord community where students talk to each other on the daily. The pandemic definitely has made things more difficult, but it is still doable! Believe in yourself and work hard. And when you need help, ask for it! 💕
Hey so I was wondering I've actually been doubling in this career for a little while now I actually have a pacemaker I've had it since I was like 2 weeks old so I literally had to go get my echocardiogram done every 6 months my whole life and this is the one career that has always interested me so my question is how much schooling did you go through and is it worth it do you love what you do is it really hard well I kind of know that's gonna be hard but is it like extremely hard And do you recommend it
I have a bunch of videos sharing that sonography programs are challenging, accelerated, and difficult. But they are doable. It can take anyone from 2-4+ years.
Honestly, they both are a LOT! People tend to think cardiac is easier because it is one organ, but that one organ does a LOT of things! Haha. As far as "easier" goes, echo and general both have their pros and cons. I love general. I'm sure if I learned echo I would love it too. But they both have their difficult days, difficult patients/ scans.. so it's really, do you want to scan the heart all day? Or would you rather scan a bunch of different exams?
Totally agree, sometimes I hate constantly looking at the heart all day, the other sonographers that work with me love doing vascular or general because it’s something different all the time. But it more On Call you will have to deal with
I will definitely say cardiac is not easy. It can be very, very challenging because the heart is always moving and changing. I obviously cannot speak for general, but I’m sure without a doubt it is also challenging! You just have to find your passion.

@@taylordownes5404 thank you. I was getting a bad vibe anyways and you just confirmed why. Thanks, have a nice day!
definitely look for CAAHEP if you can for the school!
Like very nice thanks
Thank you! 💕
A sonography discord?? How do I join
send me an email or DM on instagram!
How many parts to be a tech ? Sounds like more than one ?
Hi! I'm not sure what you mean by parts.
What is the pay like foe a new grad ?
It should be $25+ as a new grad but just depends on the city, location (hospital vs clinic) and type of job (per diem, full time, etc).
Hey so I was wondering I've actually been doubling in this career for a little while now I actually have a pacemaker I've had it since I was like 2 weeks old so I literally had to go get my echocardiogram done every 6 months my whole life and this is the one career that has always interested me so my question is how much schooling did you go through and is it worth it do you love what you do is it really hard well I kind of know that's gonna be hard but is it like extremely hard And do you recommend it
I have a bunch of videos sharing that sonography programs are challenging, accelerated, and difficult. But they are doable. It can take anyone from 2-4+ years.
@@lolgeselle thank youuu ☺️
hey!! may i ask whats the discord? i would like to join 😇
please send me an email at lolgeselle@gmail.com or dm me on instagram!
Which one is easier to study, general or cardiac? Which one is easier to work as?
Honestly, they both are a LOT! People tend to think cardiac is easier because it is one organ, but that one organ does a LOT of things! Haha. As far as "easier" goes, echo and general both have their pros and cons. I love general. I'm sure if I learned echo I would love it too. But they both have their difficult days, difficult patients/ scans.. so it's really, do you want to scan the heart all day? Or would you rather scan a bunch of different exams?
Totally agree, sometimes I hate constantly looking at the heart all day, the other sonographers that work with me love doing vascular or general because it’s something different all the time. But it more On Call you will have to deal with
I will definitely say cardiac is not easy. It can be very, very challenging because the heart is always moving and changing. I obviously cannot speak for general, but I’m sure without a doubt it is also challenging! You just have to find your passion.

Hello friends 🤗
Helloooo girly!
Hello mam,im bachelor student in cardiac technology course.Can we open cardiac sonography DIAGNOSTIC CENTRE by pursing RCS ?
HI! That's awesome! I am assuming you mean starting a business with a RCS degree? I mean I don't see why not! :) Having an MBA can also help too!
@@lolgeselle ohh thank you ...btw what's the benefit of doing MBA ? Will u please elaborate it
@@lolgeselle do the government provide any registration or license for this.?

@@lolgeselle Ok I'll try to catch her
I just had a BBY nd I want to do this however, I dnt knw hw to balance going to school full time and working any tips
If you have friends and family who are willing to help you that would greatly help! Or even considering babysitters / daycare and whatnot.

Hi, Can you have visible tattoos ? I have a neck tattoo ?
yes you can! will probably need to be covered up as a student depending on your program
What study material did you use to study for the RDCS?! 😊
you can follow Taylor and ask her @Taylor.dovvnesy
So after the DMS program I can take the SPI. After that, can I chose RDCS or RVT etc..., correct?
Yes! You can choose whichever one depending on the track you chose in school! 🥰
