Hey man, I’m all the way from Alberta, Canada and im 20years old and the way ur videos help me understand how the schooling works is incredible. Because they expect you to know how the pre-requisites work and the steps it takes to get accredited or whether I should go into private or public. These are the things no one is even mentioning or talking about. Imma start this journey, I appreciate you for it!
You got very valid points for sure, I’m in ATL and my friend does MRI and he makes 50-70 an hour working PRN at diff places. It’s definitely a good field but it takes a lot of commitment to get to that point and stay in good health.

@@reptilesgamers00 It’s a combination of all of those factors. Mentally is due to burnout and workflow; Physically in regard to assisting of patients (mostly hospital environments) which otherwise can’t move themselves.

All depends where u work tho broski. Over at kaiser the supervisors and ADA’s don’t even necessarily make more than the full time techs. Well maybe the DA but none of the other managers. So becoming a manager isn’t even necessarily a “move up” especially not in pay. Plus they have to leave the union and don’t get the raises, benefits that come with it.

Hey how are you doing brother. I’ve been keeping up with your TH-cam channel mainly because I’ve been interested in becoming a radiologic Technologist. I needed some advice honestly. I signed up for a 20 month program @ stellar college. It’s a private vocational college in Chicago Illinois. The college will offer this program in on ground format, as well as a hybrid format in which students can take up to 45% of the courses using online delivery method. I just wanted to know if I could trust this school and if it was accredited . If you have any advice I would love to hear it brother.

Hi! I have many different career options in mind and every time I do research to help me decide I seem to get more and more confused. I like the radiology and nuclear medicine side of healthcare but I have also thought about ultrasound and even dental hygiene. I don’t understand how most of the schooling works and what I will need to do to achieve my goals. I already have an associate’s in general sciences (A.S.) and want to avoid completing as much school as possible. I feel so lost! I wish there was more of a guide on how to do all of this haha. Any of your help would be much appreciated!
Also, is x-ray tech and rad tech the same thing? And if I want to be one, what do I apply for? another associate’s, a bachelor’s, or do i jump into the program?

Are you going to go back to school to be a teacher or just plan on substituting? I was thinking the same i saw that at wgu you can get a bachelors degree faster than other universities
hey man, I.ve looked through your channel as an irish radiographer debating emigrating to vancouver. What's the annual salary because it'd do hard to find. and I.m already trained in CT so do I gotta take 1 exam for XR and another for CT? The information is minimal
Yo! Welcome & thank you for watching & supporting 🙏🏽 If you haven’t already please subscribe it helps the channel 🙏🏽 Ok so for Canada it says average salary is $73K year which is around $37hr. They don’t have ARRT like the 🇺🇸 You have to pass there ACMDTT EXAM (Alberta College of Medical Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technologist) Hope this helped my friend 🙏🏽
Hello, Juan. I really appreciate your video. It was quite helpful! I was wondering what you would recommend for individuals choosing between Rad tech and PTA. I am one semester away from graduating with a BS in health sciences. I'm not sure what path to choose. Would you recommend PTA over Rad tech or Rad tech over PTA based on your personal experience? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have a question it’s probably way off topic but I wanted to ask it in a recent video. I’m planning on doing rad tech this summer and was wondering what should I go over for anatomy? It’s been some time since I’ve taken it I know major parts of the body but should I focus on tiny specific names of bones and such? Also what systems? Strictly skeletal or should I go into all systems ? Thank you!
Hey 👋 Welcome 🙏🏽 Honestly I wouldn’t do anything just yet first get accepted into the program & then we worry about the rest. Relax you will do fine 🙏🏽 Don’t want you to overwhelm yourself 🙏🏽
@@juanmotiva8s959 thank you for the response! I have a good chance getting into a program that’s super far (I got in last year but personal reasons got in the way they even asked me to apply to their nursing program that’s how few people apply!). My thing is that I was pre-nursing out of high school, couldn’t get into any program even with experience and volunteer hours, so I got my bachelors in nutritional science and hated it. It’s been really long since I had anat and physio since 2015/2016. I would have until May to refreshen and would love to study on my own.
Do you ever experience any of the ongoing psychological trauma that nurses who are burnt out experience, like the ones who want to quit the profession ? Or, do you see yourself staying in the Radiology profession until retirement, even though you have your Barber gig on the side ?
Ahh good question: So to me I see myself staying for retirement while also experiencing different careers that always interested me. The cool thing about radiology is that you only have to work 3 days per week which means you have 4 days to follow your true passion 🙂
Hello Juan I'm 49 years old and need an education I don't have kids and I'm not married I don't have to work but am interested in becoming an x ray tech. Am I too old ?

Hi 👋 Welcome & please consider subscribing if you haven’t already 🙏🏽 Ok my friend so Rad Tech doesn’t transfer from any other country. Nursing (RN) does transfer I know weird but that’s the truth. Wish you the best 🙏🏽
Hey, thanks for this video. Question, what are your thoughts on this career for someone with bad knees and can’t squat/kneel. Can squat but not the lowest some people can go. Thanks!
Hi Debby 👋 Welcome 🙏🏽 Thanks for watching Please remember to SUBSCRIBE & LIKE 👍🏽 my videos it helps the channel reach more people who need this content/help 🙏🏽 Ok so to be honest I don’t think that will be a big factor. Usually if you work outpatient center your patients will be what we call “Walkie Talkie” so they usually move on their own. If you work at the hospital you usually have help so you’re not alone. Hope this helped 🙏🏽
IF a patient comes to the Radiology dept. and already has an IV, but you have to use contrast to get an image, do you set up a 2nd IV, inject the contrast into the first IV, have a nurse handle an IV for contrast, or how does the contrast procedure actually work ?
Is it easier to work with the equipment/positioning, etc. and take images in X-ray, CT, or MRI ? Which modality is procedurally easier to get an image ?
Sup Dave ✊🏽 Thanks for watching Please remember to Subscribe, Watch & Like 👍🏽 my videos it helps reach more people 🙏🏽 Ok so 99% of the hospitals don’t care about tattoos so mostly likely if you have tattoos you will be ok. At my current hospital 🏥 I see people with whole sleeve and neck tattoos im not saying that’s smart but I would stay away from tattoos ok your hand and stay neck down where you can cover them if need be. Hope this helped 🙏🏽✊🏽
Wait a minute you said that if a rad tech has to take time off for an injury or surgery they aren’t allowed to come back. So do rad techs not get PTO or vacation time? They have to work 365? PTO isn’t a part of the benefits if you are full time?
Yo! Welcome 🙏🏽 Thanks for watching Please remember to SUBSCRIBE, WATCH & LIKE 👍🏽 my videos it helps reach more people who need this content/information 🙏🏽 Ok so you might have misunderstood or I might have said it incorrectly so let me clarify it. So basically I was saying to have a backup plan just in case you do get hurt. Yes most hospitals have PTO, SICK TIME, VACATION TIME ect… but those take years to accumulate so what happens if you start a new job and in the second week you get hurt & can’t work 🤔 You haven’t been there long enough to have any benefits. Most places give you 2 weeks PTO per year. Also, no most hospitals don’t allow you to have light duty either especially in xray our jobs are very hands on and strenuous. Hope I clarified some things for you 🙏🏽
Ok yeah I think I misunderstood, I thought you meant if you get hurt they I’ll just fire you and you don’t get any pto. But you were just saying that it takes time to build up time off and if you get hurt and don’t have enough benefits you just can’t work until you’re fully back to normal. Thats makes more sense now. Thank you! 🙂
Hola Juan! Soy un senior en high school y estoy viendo esta carrera de radiografía me gustaría entrar en esta carrera pero a la misma ves no estoy 100% segura no soy muy buena en ciencias ni en physics tengo miedo que no lo logre ya que inglés es mi segundo idioma soy ciudadana de estados unidos pero crecí en El Salvador llevo aquí 4 años En tu video mencionas que hay levantar tus pacientes es esto siempre o depende del lugar que trabajes? No soy tan alta tampoco soy tan fuerte es una carrera que es muy physical demanding? Me ayudaría mucho tu opinión yo se que todo es difícil pero con esfuerzo todo se logra pero tengo miedo no fallar ya que sería la primera en mi familia que iría a college
Hi Beatriz 👋 Welcome 🙏🏽 Thanks for watching & supporting Please subscribe & watch my videos all the way to the end it helps my channel 🙏🏽🙏🏽 Also follow me on Instagram “Jreactz.Tv” DM questions if you have more. Ok so you don’t have to be smart to get into Radiology you just have to understand that it’s not easy but if you put effort you can do it. You don’t have to be tall but yes we do have to move patients around so it is physically demanding. You got this ‼️🙂
Hello Mr. Dale 👋 Welcome 🙏🏽 Thanks for watching & please remember to Subscribe, Watch, Share & Like 👍🏽 my videos it helps reach more people 🙏🏽 Ok so it’s never to late for a new career/challenge but this career is more physically demanding than it looks working at a hospital but if you work at an outpatient center were your patients are semi healthy & can walk most of the time than it’s definitely easier. If your seriously thinking of a medical career look into laboratory technologist no hard labor you just run the blood in the machines. Usually a 2 year degree as well. Hope this helped 🙏🏽

Hi. I like your videos. Question. I have a BMO license. Do you know if I qualify for CT tech school if so where should I go? I'm in FL. If I don't qualify what should I do. TY
Yo! Sup Chris welcome 🙏🏽 Thanks for watching Please remember to Subscribe, Watch & like 👍🏽 my videos it helps the channel reach more people 🙏🏽 Ok so unfortunately you don’t qualify being a BMO you must be a full licensed Radiologist Technologist in order to get certified in CT or MRI or anything at that. Sorry but I hope this helped 🙏🏽
Ok so in order to qualify you much first go to Radiology Technologist school that’s a 2 year program. I also live in Florida. Follow me on TikTok (Same Name as TH-cam channel) message me let’s get you on the right track bro ✊🏽
Can you please do a video of taking X-rays during a surgery. I have watched a couple of videos of radiology technologists who specialize in surgery X-rays, and they were talking about all of the different nuances to being a surgery X-ray tech, having to take X-rays with a C arm while the surgeon is performing a surgery. They said that this kind of X - ray specialty is particularly stressful. What is it like taking X-rays during surgery, and how can you avoid having to do this, if you're not comfortable with the surgery environment ?
So it’s against HIPPA to make a video during surgery. The OR is very stressful but it’s doable. If you work at a hospital the only way you don’t do OR is if you work over night. But don’t be scared go into the OR you got this ‼️

People switch jobs & places but not quit.

@@juanmotiva8s959 ok great info! Thank you again, the work definitely is something but I’m glad to have came this far without giving up. I know it’ll pay off in the long run. Keep up the awesome videos… I’m one proud supporter!💪🏽
@courtneyn4157 Aww thank you for your support I truly appreciate you 🙏🏽🙂
@@juanmotiva8s959 you’re welcome!
How important is it to go to a JRCERT program ? All private schools in my area arent JRCERT
Are you going to go back to school to be a teacher or just plan on substituting? I was thinking the same i saw that at wgu you can get a bachelors degree faster than other universities
Hi 👋
I am definitely thinking of getting certified as a teacher and plan to travel in the summer as a Radiology Technologist.
Best of both worlds 🙏🏽🙂
hey man, I.ve looked through your channel as an irish radiographer debating emigrating to vancouver. What's the annual salary because it'd do hard to find. and I.m already trained in CT so do I gotta take 1 exam for XR and another for CT? The information is minimal
Yo!
Welcome & thank you for watching & supporting 🙏🏽
If you haven’t already please subscribe it helps the channel 🙏🏽
Ok so for Canada it says average salary is $73K year which is around $37hr.
They don’t have ARRT like the 🇺🇸
You have to pass there ACMDTT EXAM (Alberta College of Medical Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technologist)
Hope this helped my friend 🙏🏽
Hello, Juan. I really appreciate your video. It was quite helpful! I was wondering what you would recommend for individuals choosing between Rad tech and PTA. I am one semester away from graduating with a BS in health sciences. I'm not sure what path to choose. Would you recommend PTA over Rad tech or Rad tech over PTA based on your personal experience? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have a question it’s probably way off topic but I wanted to ask it in a recent video. I’m planning on doing rad tech this summer and was wondering what should I go over for anatomy? It’s been some time since I’ve taken it I know major parts of the body but should I focus on tiny specific names of bones and such? Also what systems? Strictly skeletal or should I go into all systems ? Thank you!
Hey 👋
Welcome 🙏🏽
Honestly I wouldn’t do anything just yet first get accepted into the program & then we worry about the rest.
Relax you will do fine 🙏🏽
Don’t want you to overwhelm yourself 🙏🏽
@@juanmotiva8s959 thank you for the response! I have a good chance getting into a program that’s super far (I got in last year but personal reasons got in the way they even asked me to apply to their nursing program that’s how few people apply!). My thing is that I was pre-nursing out of high school, couldn’t get into any program even with experience and volunteer hours, so I got my bachelors in nutritional science and hated it. It’s been really long since I had anat and physio since 2015/2016. I would have until May to refreshen and would love to study on my own.
I’m trying to look for the video on your channel that talked about a free program or some type of programs I can’t remember if it was ct or x ray?
Hi sorry I didn’t read this on time but I’m glad you found it 🙏🏽🙂
Do you ever experience any of the ongoing psychological trauma that nurses who are burnt out experience, like the ones who want to quit the profession ? Or, do you see yourself staying in the Radiology profession until retirement, even though you have your Barber gig on the side ?
Ahh good question:
So to me I see myself staying for retirement while also experiencing different careers that always interested me.
The cool thing about radiology is that you only have to work 3 days per week which means you have 4 days to follow your true passion 🙂
@@juanmotiva8s959
Nurses have the same schedule opportunity. Why not be a nurse? Isn't the schooling similar and just as long?
Hello Juan I'm 49 years old and need an education I don't have kids and I'm not married I don't have to work but am interested in becoming an x ray tech.
Am I too old ?

Hi, Juan. I am a professional radtech in PH. How doI become a radtech in the u.s or in your state?any advice or tips that can help?thanks
Hi 👋
Welcome & please consider subscribing if you haven’t already 🙏🏽
Ok my friend so Rad Tech doesn’t transfer from any other country. Nursing (RN) does transfer I know weird but that’s the truth.
Wish you the best 🙏🏽
Hey, thanks for this video. Question, what are your thoughts on this career for someone with bad knees and can’t squat/kneel. Can squat but not the lowest some people can go. Thanks!

Ok so to be honest I don’t think that will be a big factor.
Usually if you work outpatient center your patients will be what we call “Walkie Talkie” so they usually move on their own.
If you work at the hospital you usually have help so you’re not alone.
Hope this helped 🙏🏽
@@juanmotiva8s959 thanks so much! Appreciate you!
Thank you so much! Liked and subscribed ;)
@DebbyZ76 🙏🏽🙏🏽
IF a patient comes to the Radiology dept. and already has an IV, but you have to use contrast to get an image, do you set up a 2nd IV, inject the contrast into the first IV, have a nurse handle an IV for contrast, or how does the contrast procedure actually work ?
You use the IV that the patient already has & no nurses don’t handle contrast that’s the techs responsibility.
Is it easier to work with the equipment/positioning, etc. and take images in X-ray, CT, or MRI ? Which modality is procedurally easier to get an image ?
That all varies all modalities have their easy and hard views
Hi. I have a question regarding tattoos. Are they a big barrier for entry or is that not really something to worry about.

Ok so 99% of the hospitals don’t care about tattoos so mostly likely if you have tattoos you will be ok.
At my current hospital 🏥 I see people with whole sleeve and neck tattoos im not saying that’s smart but I would stay away from tattoos ok your hand and stay neck down where you can cover them if need be.
Hope this helped 🙏🏽✊🏽
Wait a minute you said that if a rad tech has to take time off for an injury or surgery they aren’t allowed to come back. So do rad techs not get PTO or vacation time? They have to work 365? PTO isn’t a part of the benefits if you are full time?
Yo!
Welcome 🙏🏽
Thanks for watching

Ok so you might have misunderstood or I might have said it incorrectly so let me clarify it.
So basically I was saying to have a backup plan just in case you do get hurt. Yes most hospitals have PTO, SICK TIME, VACATION TIME ect… but those take years to accumulate so what happens if you start a new job and in the second week you get hurt & can’t work 🤔
You haven’t been there long enough to have any benefits.
Most places give you 2 weeks PTO per year.
Also, no most hospitals don’t allow you to have light duty either especially in xray our jobs are very hands on and strenuous.
Hope I clarified some things for you 🙏🏽
Ok yeah I think I misunderstood, I thought you meant if you get hurt they I’ll just fire you and you don’t get any pto. But you were just saying that it takes time to build up time off and if you get hurt and don’t have enough benefits you just can’t work until you’re fully back to normal. Thats makes more sense now. Thank you! 🙂
That actually brings up another question for me. How common is it for rad techs to get injured on the job? Do you have a video on the physical risks?
Yes sir & my pleasure 🙏🏽
Honestly it’s not common. They teach you in school to use proper body mechanics & team work.
99 % of the time you will be just fine.
Hola Juan!
Soy un senior en high school y estoy viendo esta carrera de radiografía me gustaría entrar en esta carrera pero a la misma ves no estoy 100% segura no soy muy buena en ciencias ni en physics tengo miedo que no lo logre ya que inglés es mi segundo idioma soy ciudadana de estados unidos pero crecí en El Salvador llevo aquí 4 años
En tu video mencionas que hay levantar tus pacientes es esto siempre o depende del lugar que trabajes? No soy tan alta tampoco soy tan fuerte es una carrera que es muy physical demanding?
Me ayudaría mucho tu opinión yo se que todo es difícil pero con esfuerzo todo se logra pero tengo miedo no fallar ya que sería la primera en mi familia que iría a college

Also follow me on Instagram “Jreactz.Tv” DM questions if you have more.
Ok so you don’t have to be smart to get into Radiology you just have to understand that it’s not easy but if you put effort you can do it.
You don’t have to be tall but yes we do have to move patients around so it is physically demanding.
You got this ‼️🙂
I’m 55. Would this be too old to consider a career change and is RT a good option?
Hello Mr. Dale 👋
Welcome 🙏🏽

Ok so it’s never to late for a new career/challenge but this career is more physically demanding than it looks working at a hospital but if you work at an outpatient center were your patients are semi healthy & can walk most of the time than it’s definitely easier.
If your seriously thinking of a medical career look into laboratory technologist no hard labor you just run the blood in the machines.
Usually a 2 year degree as well.
Hope this helped 🙏🏽
Is radiology and nuclear medicine Technologist the same ??

Hi. I like your videos. Question. I have a BMO license. Do you know if I qualify for CT tech school if so where should I go? I'm in FL. If I don't qualify what should I do. TY
Yo!
Sup Chris welcome 🙏🏽
Thanks for watching
Please remember to Subscribe, Watch & like 👍🏽 my videos it helps the channel reach more people 🙏🏽
Ok so unfortunately you don’t qualify being a BMO you must be a full licensed Radiologist Technologist in order to get certified in CT or MRI or anything at that.
Sorry but I hope this helped 🙏🏽
Ok so in order to qualify you much first go to Radiology Technologist school that’s a 2 year program.
I also live in Florida.
Follow me on TikTok (Same Name as TH-cam channel) message me let’s get you on the right track bro ✊🏽
Can you please do a video of taking X-rays during a surgery. I have watched a couple of videos of radiology technologists who specialize in surgery X-rays, and they were talking about all of the different nuances to being a surgery X-ray tech, having to take X-rays with a C arm while the surgeon is performing a surgery. They said that this kind of X - ray specialty is particularly stressful. What is it like taking X-rays during surgery, and how can you avoid having to do this, if you're not comfortable with the surgery environment ?
So it’s against HIPPA to make a video during surgery. The OR is very stressful but it’s doable. If you work at a hospital the only way you don’t do OR is if you work over night.
But don’t be scared go into the OR you got this ‼️
