Will Hospital Radiology Depts Let You Work Part Time While You Are In School To Be A Radiology Tech?

Radiology Jobs — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 23:36:55 +0000

I am going to go to school to be an X-Ray Tech. I am going to have to quit my full time job to do so because the classes are only during the day. I am going to have to find a part time job because I have bills to pay. Do hospitals let you work in the radiology dept why you are still in school? I’m also hoping I can get loans to help me so I can have some extra money… Worried!

How Do You Find A Job You Will Like And Not One Just To Earn A Living Mri Guy?

Radiology Jobs — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 11:20:40 +0000

Well, you can stumble into it by taking every job that is offered to you, and eventually landing in the right spot – if you’re lucky.
OR, you could take the time to figure out what it is that you really enjoy doing – everyone is different.
There are several online services that can help you, and the RileyGuide has a collection of them at http://www.rileyguide.com/assess.html
You can also read the classic career book, “What Color Is Your Parachute.” Buy or borrow it – it’s updated every year (2007 is out now), but every edition is useful. Your local library probably has it available.
Once you’ve figured out what you want to do, look around at who is hiring people to do that. It may be the store on the corner or your city’s government.
Put together a list of potential employers. Then, call them up to ask how you get a job there. It may be through the Website, coming in and completing an application, etc.
Do what ever the “official” process for getting a job is, and also look for people you know (or for people who know people you know) who work for those employers and ask them for advice and help. Employers often have an “employee referral program” which rewards existing employees for bringing in the resume or for recommending someone for a job.
In the interview process, remember that it’s a 2-way street. Do you like them? Does it seem like a place you would enjoy working? Does it seem like a job you would enjoy doing?
Go for it – carefully. If you pick that job carefully, you’ll have a better chance of enjoying it.

How Likely Is It That I Will Be Able To Continue Rad Tech School While Pregnant?

Radiology Jobs — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 23:27:26 +0000

i recently got accepted into a 2 yr rad tech program that accepts only 17 students per year. i will start this summer. i signed a pregnancy policy which included this:
The declared pregnant student may:
1. a. Continue as a student without any interruption in the regular program.
b. Continue as a student with deferral of fluoroscopy, surgery and portable rotations until pregnancy is completed. These rotations will be made-up.
c. Continue as a student with classroom participation only. All clinical rotation requirements deferred until pregnancy is completed.
d. Begin a leave of absence. The student will be readmitted to the School at a later date (i.e. – same time the following year) to continue their clinical and didactic training.
2. The student will be counseled by the Program Faculty regarding the pregnancy policy of the School.
3. The student who decides to continue clinical and didactic participation is required to abide by the following:
a. She will adhere to all radiation and standard precautions.
b. If any problem or if change in student status must be made, this should be submitted in writing, immediately.
c. She will wear two personnel radiation monitoring devices, one placed over the collar and one over the embryo-fetus, for monitoring. Readings will be monitored closely by the Radiation Safety Officer.
d. If at any time, a pregnant student feels she is working in an unsafe area or under conditions she feels are detrimental to herself or to the embryo-fetus, she should stop and report to the Program Director or Departmental Supervisor.
4. A vacancy will be held for a student for a maximum of six months following completion of pregnancy. After that time she will be considered withdrawn from the program.
5. The student will realize upon return that all requirements for graduation must be completed. The requirements include the clinical rotations, required courses, clinical competencies for the two-year period. NO EXCEPTIONS TO THE LENGTH OF THE TRAINING PERIOD. A student must complete twenty-four months of full-time student status. A certificate will not be issued until all requirements have been successfully met.
my husband and i are planning to get pregnant soon, and it actually turns out that if i get pregnant before april, the baby will be due during christmas break from school, which is about 3 -4 wks.
i’m just worried that will not hold-true to their policy and let me continue full-time as normal. alot of schools around here “do what’s best for the student as well as the class”. but if i signed this policy i’m okay, right?

Radiology Jobs — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 00:11:08 +0000

Will I need to be extra good in math, chemistry or science? Those aren’t exactly my strong points but I’m interested in becoming a rad tech to take x-rays. It seems like there would be a lot of variety and opportunity in this field.
