You don't even need a bachelor's degree to be an RN. You can be an RN after getting an Associate Degree in Nursing and successfully pass the NCLEX.
I’m in PA school and I can tell you that Physician assistants DO NOT follow the Doctor around and assist them lol. PA’s see their own patients, diagnose, prescribe meds, orders labs and tests, and do certain procedures and they do not need to communicate with the physician daily unless they have questions about complex cases. 👍🏽 Please do not misinform
😢😢man i cant trust these youtubers
Been a RN x 31 years . Also flexible for different jobs as we get older that are easier on the body as well. I’m a RN Case Manager.
As a high school senior not knowing what path to take...your videos have been so helpful!! Ahhhh thank u
Ahhh I really appreciate this! I hope this video gave you some insight! But if you wanna get into PT... you know where to look haha
Me right now. But this is pretty helpful as I’m still stuck with wanting be young, have a decent career, and gain a pretty decent salary, however nursing is still drawing the most attention to me, still got a bit of time to decide.
@@brianmartin141 Hey Brian, I think you will find this playlist super helpful. I have videos that compare PT to other profession like nursing, PA, chiro, etc th-cam.com/play/PLdxUIDTaI7pxjJddQalArDI6n0o9RTZxS.html
@@brianmartin141 hey so i know you commented 4 months ago, but if your still unsure about what career you want make sure your really do your research. Right now im a junior in high school but i'm in a pre-nursing program and all i can say is that i did not expect this when i signed up for it. I definitely think that nursing is very stressful and the stress varies in the type of nursing you do. At the end of the school year when i finish this program (if i decide to stay) i'm gonna get my stna but i'm definitely starting to look into a different path. If your interested in a career within healthcare, my best advice is to really do your research because i've been doing some and there are plenty different types of careers in healthcare than just nursing and becoming a doctor. lmk if you have any questions, i'll be glad to answer.
@@cyndyes3287 Agree with you about nursing. STRESSFUL. The programs are exhausting and it seems nurses have to learn bits and pieces of everyone else's job in addition to their own skill set. The focus on the all the meds and dosages starting turning me off from it. Even the entry level nurses, it's a big liability thing.
Very much looking forward to the PT vs OT video! I just finished my first year as a pre-PT student and am debating between PT and OT. Great videos, keep it up!
If you’re considering the nursing route you can get your associates degree and many of the healthcare organizations will pay you to complete your bachelors. Having your nursing degree allows you to work in hospitals, clinics, schools, etc. There’s opportunities where you’re not a bedside nurse or have minimal to no interaction with patients.
Curious on how you can be a nurse with little interaction with patients?
@@kayleighfoster7428 school nurse?
@@kayleighfoster7428 administration
@@kayleighfoster7428 my sister-in-law is a nurse with her bachelors degree. She has no interaction with patients. She works from home as a Nurse Coordinator and she makes $54 an hour
I am a dental hygienist and love my career. Be aware that many of the associate degrees talked about in this video actually are more like a 4 year degree. Many including dental hygiene you must do 2 years of pre-reqs then apply to the program for the 2 year associate degree in desired field.
I was thinking of doing DH but people said they may get back pain and cannot see themselves doing it for 10+ years
@@MrLuffy9131 I have been doing dentistry for 18 years and have no back issues. Keep active, proper posture and ergonomics, chiropractic and massage care. It can be a long career. I work 27-32 hours a week also which helps instead of 40.

Your channel is amazing for aspiring healthcare professionals like myself!! Thank you so much for making this quality content
Great video! There are so many great careers in the healthcare industry that go beyond doctors and nurses!
I was able to make my dream clearer by watching this video, and it is good that you explain what I do and my salary in detail, and I think it will be useful for everyone who dreams of becoming a medical professional
For anyone interested, there are also jobs in anesthesia as an Anesthesiologist Assistant. It is similar to being a Physician assistant for anesthesia.
Woaaaaah you know this is actually something I wanted to get into but I didn’t know they had an assist position available. What’s the schooling like for that?
that's what I want to get into anesthesiologist assistant a masters degree is required and ive been thinking about it because I really want to do It I have been dm people that are anesthesiologist assistant so I can get more information about the career from people that are in it already
from the research ive done a masters degree is required but idk if that's true or false
@@christianrodriguez1496Hi, I have been also looking for information about this field. Please let me know when you have additional information. Thank you.
Very very very rare
You can actually get an Associates in nursing, I did!!! I went back and got my BSN and later Masters but two years and you’re on your way!!! Good video!!!
Registered nurses needs a minimum of associate degree. I started my RN with associates degree. I am now a psychiatric nurse practitioner. Majority of my colleagues make over $200k yearly because here in California there is a shortage of psychiatric provider. Also as an NP, you are allowed to open your own practice. I currently have my own telepsychiatry clinic. Even before the pandemic , telepsychiatry was becoming the norm. Now with covid , the need for telepsych providers exploded. Almost all insurances now pay for virtual visit. You can work anywhere you want as long as you have computer and internet. :)
WOW. THATS A DREAM COME TRUE!!! Dude you made it Mike! Congrats on achieving such a lucrative business and taking the opportunity to get into this field at the right time. I appreciate your feedback and insight to the NP field. I know this comment will help someone who is searching for this. Thanks for the comment!!
Ni
Do hoy know anybody who is an Obgyn NP ??
I'm thinking of becoming one , but I' m confused nd dont know 2 start
Yes but also houses cost $800,000 a year for starters in California so you've got to make more money. Lol and you're a massive crime and high taxes. Probably still worth it financially but California is no longer the Golden State
This is dope.
Very very helpful! Thanks for this!
This was great!! Thank you!
Tears…thank you so much for making this video. You were sent by an angel my way to help me decide on my future. God bless
Love hearing this! Thanks for the feedback!
It’s so interesting to see the American requirements, I’ve been deciding between OT & PT, in Australia you can do either a Bachelors, Masters or Doctorate just depending on what the uni offers there’s no minimum... I just finished my Bachelors in Health Science & leaning more towards OT because it’s way cheaper & the contact hours are a little less than PT! This was great insight 🤗
Also you can become a Healthcare Assistant (for either OT or PT) with just a Certificate (basically level below Associates degree, associates degree aren’t very popular here) -neither are Doctorate degrees actually but some unis run them to attract international students because of the international requirements haha
That’s interesting. That’s pretty much the case in the Philippines too! Mostly just a Bachelor’s in Science in PT, some do the bridge to MA. Maybe I could go to Australia.. haha
@@charizarr.d Yeah that sounds very similar!
Yes come to Aus! We have lots of international students :)
Great thought provoking questions, thanks for the great video!
You're very welcome! You mentioned being an executive assistant at a hospital. What exactly are your job duties? Is that a healthcare profession or more like healthcare admin?
It's an admin job, secretary, 9-5. I drive a desk: create and respond to communications, coordinate events and projects for the CEO, coordinate Public Relations and Volunteers. No college required.
@@carmenwyoming5610 that’s legit. Glad you could make a great living doing that!!!
Great video!!! Always providing great information!!!!
Thanks bro! I appreciate you!
Meanwhile with my associate’s in pharmacy technology LOL.
Great video btw!
youre a God bless bro,thank you so much for your contribution,and thoughts
This video was very helpful! Thank you!
IM SO GLAD!!! What did you find useful about it?
Your the greatest I was struggling heavy trying to pick something to do since it’s my senior year. Jus thanks man imma become a dentist 🥹
So informative! great video! Thank you
You’re very welcome! Thinking of making a part 2!
Very informative! Thanks. OTD here for a lymphedema therapist role in the future!
Thank you. Wow that’s really awesome! What a niche! Do you enjoy working as a lymphedema therapist?
@@drjustinleedpt Not yet. I have a way to go.
love your energy man!!!!
Thank you so much!!!!
This was really usefull !!
I love your humor ;)
I was thinking of being an ocupacional therapist
HAHA Thank you!! I try to keep it fun and interesting. Thats a great choice! Youll need a doctorate degree by the time you apply for it
thank you im about to start my life over soo this is good to know
This is a super helpful video!!
vivian estrada YES! I love that it helped you V! What was your favorite part of the video? Which career were you thinking? 🤔
This video helped give me more ideas as to which profession I should get into! Thank you🤓BTW your puppy so cute
Aww thank you so much! His name is Taco!! And I'm SO glad this video was helpful. Which profession did you decide to pursue?
Man thank u sooo much u have no idea how confused I was💜💜
Enjoyed the video; I am currently in school becoming a physical therapist assistant
Great profession Might Zane! Good luck!!
Thank you for this video 😊
You’re welcome!
Another thing to think about is how much are you willing to be on call? Optometrists, PT, OT, PA typically practice in a clinic setting. In the hospital, RRT, Pharmacists, rad techs are going to spend a lot more time working nights, weekends and on call.
That is a REALLY good point! I have not thought of that one.. Thank you for sharing!
Making that money
OMG can't wait for the PT and PTA video. I'm graduating in fall 2020 and as I get closer to graduating I'm thinking of going to PTA school first then maybe in couple years go to PT school because ik that PT school is expensive.
There are no jobs, don’t waste your time
@@satyasatya6694 what do you mean there are no jobs?
What did you decide? I’m considering PT tuition as well
@@DestinysFashion101 doing PTA first then I might do a bridge program.
I was actually curious about your take about which professions could be taken over by technology in the next 10 years
This is helpful! I am starting Radiation therapy on July. Praying that career is for me. 🫶🏻
Well done.
👍
College freshman 🥰 thank you for this video !!
Glad you are catching this video now! You’re ahead of the game Amaiya!
ohmygawd yes, I needed this, as a high school senior I legit have no idea about what I should study, I was thinking about radiology like my older sister, but I wasn't feeling it tbh, & no one tells you anything about available careers here!
TBH, there are so many medical professions out there but these are the top professions that I found to be most relevant especially if you are thinking somewhere around the physical therapy field. glad this was helpful!
Off topic but obsessed with the apartment/decor (including doggo in the background 🤭)
You can become an Rn with an Associate's... Then get hired, get your BSN online. Also some jobs will pay a portion of your education if your promise to work for them
Thank you for sharing that! I corrected a couple of things that is coming out in my next video, comparing nursing and PT. Thank you for your feedback
That's my plan 😌
There is a real need for Respiratory Therapists, talk with an RRT and learn about this awesome field! I work as an executive assistant at a hospital, if I were looking to get into a clinical role, this is where I would start.
Thats a great start! Thank you for sharing this! Do you have any referrals or friends that I can talk to about this field?
Great video 🤍 As of now you still just need an associate degree for RN.
RN's can get their associate degree as well in some states. In these states, they take their state boards after their two year program and can work at an RN wage while finishing their bachelor's degree (if wanted). Just a heads up. Great video!
Thank you for that information! Every state is different and I always advise students to double check what is required to get a job. I appreciate your feedback and thank you for dropping a comment!
Can you still just get your associate degree and not need your bachelors if you want to stay permanent in nursing? Or will that limit your opportunitys to become a nurse? Barring which field you want to go into
@@stevansmith9582 correct me if I am wrong (any RNs out there) but I believe you can get a job with just an an associates but it will limit the opportunities. However, others have commented that sometimes company’s will pay for you to further your education to get an bachelors
I am exploring profesión as Clinical dietician
thank you for this. i'm a senior in high school and i'll be graduating soon. i wasn't sure what i wanted to do, all i knew was i wanted to do something in the medical field. radiation therapy definitely interested me and i will be looking into it more!
So glad this video inspired you to look into radiation therapy. That was the whole point of the video and comments like this affirms the reason for this video. Thank you for that. Please share this with your friends!
SAME!! Man knowing someone else is going through what I’m going through feels nice so thank you :)
I dont know what to do either 😢
thank you!
Hey great video and informative! What would you say is your #1 criteria in choosing a job?
Great honest topic Kuya!
Peter Justin Taguinod thank you bro! I got a lot more coming! I’m leveling up!!!
Hey i liked the way you explain wanna know more about "orthopedic" field.... Plz a video on that topic will help me out... Plz
Thank u for those awesome helps
Great video love your channel keep it going 💯🔥
Tony Tiger thanks so much Tony Tiger lol
I love your videos. I was wondering if you had any advice for people with associate degree in kinesiology and what one should do career-wise while pursuing a exercise science degree?
This is a great question!! I would recommend working as a personal trainer while you are pursing your exercise science degree. Best part-time job ever
Neurology is another area to consider
I have done previously on PAs, and they do get some autonomy, and it’s not a physician’S assistant, they receive their own patients, but have their supervising physician that they can go to with any questions
Yes, it is physicians assistant no physician assistant thank you for that correction
Also correct about the autonomy. I know many PAs who own their own practice and others who work as solo providers in UC or rural ER medicine
@@isaaca2545 oh wow I didn’t know PAs can start their own practice. That’s great to know!! Do you have your own practice? Where do you practice?
@@drjustinleedpt I’m currently in PA school, but I’ve rotated with PAs that own their own practices in Michigan. One example is Med Sports Vantage in Brighton. I know 2 other PAs that have opened pediatric practices in the same area. The contingency in Michigan is that a MD/DO must be a 1% shareholder. Other states like North Carolina allow PAs to own their own practices as well. I know it’s true elsewhere, but it’s very state-by-state specific.
@@isaaca2545 ahhhhhhhh that’s so awesome!!! That’s actually really cool that PAs are able to do that. I didn’t know the laws and practices in other states. Thank you so much for sharing!
I like to know more about pharmacist and pharmacy tech. In Canada!
Thanks so much for your uplifting and interesting video. I'm from San Diego & I went to Hong Kong alone for the past ten years. I was an English teacher and am 33 years old. There is a Masters programme that can get me a physiotherapy degree & it would leave me stuck in Hong Kong. But I'm so passionate about movement. My degree is so useless in career switching lol so I am considering these medical field roles just so I can get back to the US. I actually have a passport in Canada so that's an option too. Are there people that ended up in healthcare roles that really ended up enjoying it? Just like anyone else, I love studying and learning so a career where it has versatility & I can be around people (social interaction) would be awesome. I think I narrowed it down to the healthcare industry since I love being of service to others but I think the most amount of schooling I can handle is 3 years. Haha...when you build one career & have to start all over...you just don't got the energy lol.
We had 40+ year olds in nursing class. However, many dropped out and said they were crazy to think they could do that schooling. Please don't feel like your age is an issue because you are young my dear and have time to make changes. I do understand your concern for energy conservation too haha. Hopefully, you'll post an update sometime. Wishing you the best whatever you decide to do.
Had you known about all these other professions prior to applying to DPT school, would you still have chosen PT? I actually got accepted to a couple of DPT programs and then decided not to go. Instead I chose to go down the PA route.
Hey sorry for the late reply, I missed your comment. Just seeing it now! I did know about the other professions but I chose PT because they are the only field that utilizes exercise as treatment. Other professions primarily use medicine and I’m not about that. I also loved that it was a doctoral degree and the independence as a PT was super intriguing to me
I want a detailed video about bpt ..and more about it please ❤️as I wanted to take admission in and I would love to if make a very detailed video about it
It’s such an amazing video I Really enjoyed sir I am doing Human Nutrition and Dietetics can u please make a video on its scope salary and much about it?Its a request plz make a video in it♥️
Hey this is Victor is dental hygienist, physician assistant and radiation therapist in high demand
Hi! I was wondering what is more in demand speech therapy or occupational therapy? I like the idea of both but I can’t choose, I just want versatility and a steady job in the future. Thank you so much for this video, this was exactly what I was looking for on youtube.
I’m so glad this video served you. I love it when you are searching for a specific answer on TH-cam and it gets answered in one video. In my opinion, both professions are in demand and growing. I think it would really depend on what body part you would like to work with? If it’s mostly the throat and mouth, then for sure speech therapy you know? But if it’s more globally and typically the upper body, then OT is a good way to go. I can’t imagine looking at people’s throats and mouths all day.. haha that’s just me!
(this may or may not be relevant a year later, but in case others are interested) Depends highly on where you live! If you're in Canada you can look on Canada Job Bank Analysis of Occupation and search your area. Occupational therapy is pretty easy to find full time after 1 year of work in most provinces. A few of my friends who are SLPs have had difficulty finding full time work. However, there are benefits to casual work/multiple jobs. If you have no health concerns and are young, casual pay is often quite a bit higher, but no contributions to RRSPs or healthcare insurance. I imagine the States is similar in that it varies per location and area of practice (hospital, private, etc.). I'm an occupational therapist and found it very easy to find a job out of school, but starting pay was approx $68000.
You can become an rn with an associates at a community college…..I think you got your info about their education from what magnet hospitals require but I’m not sure. Even then an 80% bachelors to 20% associates ratio would be common
Great video man!! I'm currently at a 2 year college, but thinking about changing my major to something in the medical field. This video really helped me.
That sounds great to hear! Your can always bet for a secure future in the medical field
Which major were you into and what major have you chosen right now?
Can you interview, RN, Nurse practitioner, PA PTA that would be amazing!
I'm in school right now for a Nursing degree but I only have to have an associates. A bachelor's would be better but I can definitely get my RN license with just the associates
I'm in 9th grade and still have time to decide and all......but I wanna be sure like now..not now now..but now..as in.....this year....I still don't know but thanks for making this video anyway...helped me alot.💕💕👍
It is good that you are challenging your mind already to think beyond just undergrad! Keep your ambitions high!! I love it!
@@drjustinleedpt Thank You!!
@@drjustinleedpt Oh and I definitely will😊
You can be a RN with an associate degree and make that salary as well.
I started off with my ADN for the first 12 years of my career. I bought my house at the age of 24 with my ADN😊
Lady, how hard is it to get a ADN?
So would you say getting an associate RN may be a better step than an LVN license?
@@MJ-gj6mj I can’t speak on your specific circumstances, but I’m getting a second degree in nursing and have been researching the best route to take. My mom has been a nurse for a little over 10 years now. She got her lpn, then adn, and finally her bsn. That’s how the school she went to was set up. She told me lpn was a waste of time and money and that she regrets doing it that way.
@@aubreycurell4365 Thank you for the input! Although every school really pushes their own program, I kind of felt that the lpn track was an additional 18mos of a sidetrack.
You can get your RN licensure with an Associates degree. Work as an RN, Then go on to the BSN later.
You’re right! I made a video comparing nursing and PT and went into more detail about that
Great video!! What about sleep technician !?
Sleep technician?? Woaaah what’s that?
I would be interested in information about becoming an anesthesiologist assistant. Thank you for the video.
YES! That is a great one! They make baaaaaank
I’m thinking that’s a CRNA-certified registered nurse anesthetist or PA…the CRNA route is a lot of schooling and debt!! But the pay out is awesome especially if you’re young to pay that money back.
Just to add on the RN, you can get an associates degree (2 years) and become an RN.
I’m interested in PT/PTA but Nursing and even PA are also intriguing.
Do you have a video on psychology, social work and the like
Things I wish I knew before becoming a Registered Occupational Therapist 😑😬😔😷🙄🤢🤮...
Great video though, i appreciate the info
Oh man... doesn’t sound like you like OT too much? Why is that? You’re welcome! Glad it was informative to you
This video made me decide on radiation therapy
Nice video but what about ultrasound technicians? X-ray technicians? Etc .
RN can be an associate's degree. Same license and pay as BSN. It's physician assistant, not physician's assistant. They are the medical model equivalent of a nurse practitioner. They often work autonomously with minor supervision from their physician.
Thanks for the clarification
Thankyou. Lots of information in this vid. I am taking prerequisit courses to head to nursing school(RN), but I am scared if I don’t like the job as a male nurse after I spend lots of money and time. Some times I think I should go to radiology technician and still find my self worrying about the job security on this field. Do you have suggestions from your experience please? Thankyou again
Both are great professions. I think it would depend on your personality. Nurses will be around a lot more people and a lot more interactions. If you’re a social guy, I would recommend this route. Plus it has more room to grow
Can you advice between a OT and a pharmacist technician?
Which has a better job demand? Degree of difficulty
Which has shorter college study up to a bachelor degree including board exam and ready to work?
Medical Laboratory Scientists are also allied health professionals. That’s another career you guys can look into.
Do you have any Videos about PA I'm really interested in the profession
RNs actually don't always need a bachelors degree. depending on the state's requirement, some RNs can just have a diploma or associates!
You only need at least a two year degree to be a registered nurse. I think if you get your bachelor's you make more. My mom was a nurse for years before she got her bachelor's and my step mom still only has her associates.
You’re 100% right!
In Madison PT make only 50k per year. And appartment rent is$ 1,400per month and up!
That’s crazy isn’t it?
Interview an SLP!! Thank you so much
I will put that on the list! Thank you!

Hi! I've been watching and reading about PHYSIOtherapist, PHYSICALtherapist, Kinesiology and Neurophysiotherapy and I got a bit confused! Unfortunately in my country Physiotherapy is not a well-paid job and also there are low chances for career development. I am so doubting which one to choose. Can You please tell me which one is more used in hospitals? I've always wanted to study either clinical psychology or physiotherapy and I still can't decide. I know only one thing- I long to help people! 😍
Hey Veliyana have you considered studying occupational therapy, it's quite similar to physiotherapy
Forgot about Cardiac Rehab Therapists in your therapy triangle :)
Is going to community college and taking majority of the courses to transfer to a bigger school for PT recommended to save on money and debt
I would 100% recommend doing this to save money! What I would do is go to a community college and take as many classes as you can to transfer into a university and also take courses that will fulfill your prerequisite. That way you get the price of those courses for a community college rather than prices for a university. If I had done it differently, I would have taken this route
Studying for PT , what a waste of time, with Medicare cuts there is app 100, 000
Therapists without jobs, forget about making 40,000 dollars a year, thank you for posting this video.
Just because there are Medicare cuts doesn’t mean that you get a pay cut too. Although clinics have been affected and there are PTs that have been cut, it doesn’t mean you still can’t get a job at another clinical setting. Everyone has to be flexible and we can all get everything that we want in an ideal clinical setting. But you are welcome and thank you for sharing your thoughts! It is always good to hear both the pros and cons
