I love your story!

danggg programs near me require a nurse aid certification to even apply

I’m excited for you!!

So happy you’re back !!!

I regret every day having studied ultrasound. Never was able to pass the spi. I saw how female oriented ( no offense). The career was when I did rhe externship at the hospital. Which I asked to be moved out of. Because of the rude supervisor supervisor in the department. I tell anyone don't go into this field.

This is the part most people don't talk about. This is why... I'm going to go back into the trades in a year or two. I'm comfortable with being an ultrasound tech, but i know longevity is not there. I also want to have a pension with a union if my body is going to hurt anyways instead of these hospitals that barely offer the minimum benefits to keep people there.

I started a sonography bachelors degree years ago and left cuz I needed to work more - I always consider going back to a one year program instead of 4 but I’m not sure - Cant you do it independently like do house calls ? Or another way the hospital here does it on certain shifts , they will just call the sonographer from home due to the minimal amount of sonograms needed. I have no hands on experience. Just a photo degree that made me think I might like sonography cuz imagery. Than I see this RSI problem is it called ?(the pain u speak of- who knew 😱- it is getting recognized as a problem in 90% of sonographers so hopefully they will change things ) Working at Starbucks gave me carpal syndrome , shoot I wonder what sonography wld do 😅 But give yourself a big round of applause girl! Sonography is nearly the same tech military uses to fly airplanes ! Just graduating and during rona! Wow ! Smart girl☺️

I had went to another tab and I was like "why do I hear a west indian woman? 🤔" and I didn't realize it was you 🤣🤣🤣

I had no idea that sonography was so physically demanding

Thank you for this vedio because I have been a Certified Nursing Assistant for 27 years and I am very interested in becoming a Ultrasound Tech. And I am 56 years old.

Hi I wanna know what you’re doing now. What other career path are you on/ started. I want another life update it’s been a year. I would love to hear how this tale ends.😂

Im a CNA. I cannot wait to be done with my DMS. I will take whatever pain comes with sonography over the excruciating physicality that comes with being a CNA. CNAs are the New Yorkers of health care. If you can make it as a CNA you can make it anywhere lol

You provided valuable insights into your experience. Thankful

Thank you for being honest about this. I am in school right now. It is very demanding and frustrating at times. I enjoy learning but sometimes I wonder.

Girl why didn’t you just get a job in obgyn.? I did hospital work for 2 years before i found a private practice office job Way easier

Hi could we get an update? Please are you continuing school or what are your plans?

I agree with you ❤ I can’t feel my shoulder wrist when I get home even my off days I can’t relax . I’m on search for a new career it’s extremely hard for my body. Some girls doing it but it’s not for everyone . Physical part is hardest !

Now I’m second guessing going into this field and wasting $28,000. I keep seeing people make videos about the pain it causes. Do anyone have a suggestions on a medical field job that pays well other than nursing. Like an 18 month program?

Which college did you do your program?

What about the shifts is the sonography work only 3 days same

Thank you for being real

Where did you go can we get an life update

Girly can we get an update?? Im so close to graduating and starting to feel like its not right for me. I am scared

I feel like when I became a nurse it was Gods way of telling me this isn’t the field you want to be in because it’s entry level but it’s not worth it.

thank you

Does it pay well?

What are you in to now?

I graduated with my B.S & SPI in 20’ but can’t find a job because of the gap of my scanning. Never got a job after school bc of Covid. Have to get ABD b4 end of year or I lose SPI. I wanna give up… it’s sad I’ll lose all that effort and money I put into school but I’m thinking to grow in health administration instead

So its really 3 years? Because you have to get the pre stuff out the way right or is that with in the same year

Dhufnug🎉

Great platform. Anyone thinking about going into this don’t do it, or at least have a backup plan. This job is hard, no chance of upward mobility and nobody respects you. They look at you as a simple button pusher, but you’re not. You physically have to get the images needed which can be exhausting. If you get better doctors and hospitals just add more patients for you. This would be a dream job if they capped the amount of patients you’re allowed a day, but they won’t and you’ll eventually have chronic musculoskeletal issues.

Can you work fulltime or part-time during school?

Did you do this everyday or how many days a week ? I’m looking to go into this but only part time

How did I study? I sick at states tests? I have bad anxity and panick attacks

Was it hard?

I plan on going to ultrasound school in IL. I want to do it. It’s like that with all careers after college. Books are i different from regular real world job.

How long did you stay in the field? What sector of the radiology field do you think would be an easier load? I hear MRI is better. What did you move on into?

Your voice is amazing so the rumbling is 🔥 lol😂thank you so much for this update

I'm really in the fence about what is that i want to do in the Healthcare field. I have taken a boat load of prerequisites and earned a AA NOT an AS idk if it will be worth even trying to apply to any school once they see that. Should I go for it?

I just want to let everyone know an Ultrasound Tech can CROSSTRAIN to MRI

I feel so discouraged right now. I am a student and my current clinic site is awful. I barely get to scan and when I try to comp they rip my images apart 😣🥺😢😭. Techs don’t want to help future techs.

ohhhh nooo im looking to be in ultrasound

Same but with nursing.

So nervous! Lol I take my abdomen registry in 3 weeks 🤣🤣 I took the ESP seminar though and that helped soooooo much!! I love the book they mail you 😍 it’s been a gem 💎

So what are you doing now?

I love the program but I gave up because my graduate date was pushed for many months on hand. By the time I started my clinicals my driving hours increased ridiculously. I had to commute 5 hours daily. And, by the time I finish my day, Oh boy. I am beyond tired and going to bed only to to wake up tired again. I was just unlucky in my journey to pursue this wonderful career. I loved the field but I just didnt means to carry on.

@morganashley3420 ngl I am in my 2nd semester of cardiovascular sonography school and I’m at the point like this field is not for me. I was very interested prior to starting but now I personally feel it’s boring because it’s super repetitive you know. what are you thinking of doing outside of ultrasound if you don’t mind me asking?

I already have hand tendinitis in my right hand 😢😢😢. Makes me so scared just to think that I cant bear it
