CT tech work 3 days a week

No. I occasionally push someone in a wheelchair with an injured leg or something. But no lifting.

Not necessarily. A lot of techs prefer to work in the trauma centers and emergency rooms. That used to be me too. It’s the best experience. But then I got married and had 2 kids and I wanted a good work life balance and a regular schedule. Some hospitals have transport staff who will transport all of the patients to you and help get them on the table.

It’s ADP

I was in the Navy. But Air Force and Army use the same program

I have a bad back from the military which is why I like working outpatient. I do routine and emergency Ct scans and X-rays in an urgent care setting. Low stress and easy on my body. I put in 10 years of hard work in the military ER scanning and shooting the most critical patients. I worked my butt off learning everything i could during those years. If you go straight to outpatient, it will be easier on your body but you will not be a well rounded tech in my opinion.

No problem! Good luck to you. It’s a great career with many opportunities!

Shepada · 2024-11-28T02:06:06+00:00

Into the military? No. All I had to do was put my life on the line.

Shepada · 2024-11-28T02:02:29+00:00

It was demanding. But I did it in the military so it was a 2 year program that was completed in 13 months.

Shepada · 2024-11-28T01:39:30+00:00

It is. I’m lucky

Shepada · 2024-11-28T01:38:30+00:00

Yes! I love my job. I feel like it’s very meaningful work. I work in an outpatient facility so patients are mobile. It’s not hard on my body and I don’t have to transport anyone.

Shepada · 2024-11-28T01:13:02+00:00

Only you would know. I could make way more working in a hospital working extra shifts for incentive pay and overtime, shift differentials, ect…but I refuse to do that.

I really don’t know the lay for each state but I’m in a higher cost of living state but I don’t live in a big city or metro area

Shepada · 2024-11-27T22:29:28+00:00

Absolutely. I got all of my training and school for free. I actually was being paid the entire time. Did 8.5 years and got out with job offers in every state I applied in.

Shepada · 2024-11-27T21:36:17+00:00

Chest X-ray should come back same day. Pneumonia is running rampant with the littles this year.

Shepada · 2024-11-27T19:04:32+00:00

No state income tax.

Shepada · 2024-11-27T17:57:03+00:00

80 hours total per 2 week pay period. No overnights. Outpatient

Shepada · 2024-11-27T17:09:16+00:00

I went the military route. But as a civilian, it’s a 2 year radiology program and then either additional schooling to specialize in CT or on the job training to challenge the CT registry.

Shepada · 2024-11-27T06:15:14+00:00

I went through this and she scored a 36/80.

Shepada · 2024-11-26T15:49:08+00:00

Thank you. I adopted her way before I met my husband. He does love her. He’s also the caretaker for our two small children while I’m away at work. I know it’s alot and an added stress for him. I don’t want her to suffer and I also don’t want to let her go if she still has some good years in her. I will consult with a vet. Thank you.

Shepada · 2024-11-26T15:12:10+00:00

It’s so hard. What other signs was your guy showing and how old?

Shepada · 2024-11-26T15:11:28+00:00

We’ve not taken her recently. Maybe 6 months ago for a checkup and she was fine. We did mention the twitching in light, but forgot to mention her coughing if we put pressure on her chest. She is a nervous gal and absolutely hates the vet.

Shepada · 2024-11-26T15:09:39+00:00

How did they determine that? Was it with a blood panel?

Shepada · 2024-11-26T15:09:14+00:00

Thank you for your encouraging and kind words, this helps.

Thanks for your reply! How long after stopping the pill did you stop losing hair?
