    Great video! I noticed you said you don't do X-rays yet. Do they train you how to do that or did you have to obtain another certification?

    • @Yazmincruz7
      @Yazmincruz7  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      No I wish I did. It's not something I thought I would be doing, my job in particular just happens to train and certify us in x-rays. Since it's an urgent care they have x-ray machines and only MA's and Doctors and a few CT Techs. So they have to train the MA's to do x-rays.

      @@jacendriathomas2177 No I’m certified. Phlebotomists do a particular thing, EKG techs do a particular thing & etc. There’s “patient care coordinators” now and I thing they do the vitals and triage portion. MA’s have a broader range of training to do all of the above and more. Now it depends on the company that hires that cares or not if you have a certification. Most do but some don’t at least here in TX I know
