MRI Tech here. Just because you do not get a break doesn't mean all MRI techs don't get a break. Every site in my city has a lunch/dinner break of 45 minutes, depending on what shift you work morning or evening.
Omg the patient gets to choose the music? That's so cool! When I was having my brain-MRI's they just put it on a random radio station and it only added to the uncomfortable experience 😔
Would you be down for a Q&A live video, so I could ask you some detailed questions about the job duties? I am interested in the field but I’m scared it won’t be a good fit for me in the long run. If I start the enrollment process soon I would start school in January next year. Thanks Heather!
I’d love to know if mri tech is something I can do. I have one arm. My whole life I’ve been able to figure things out? It’s something I’ve been thinking for a while
I still dont understand how radiology techs are allowed to place ivs. Usually it has to be a nurse but where I work and almost everyone else its not. While I, the tech aid with experience accessing veins and in dialysis as well, am not allowed to.
ACR requires at least one MR level two personnel and a second MR level two or level one personnel. Tell your manager they are in breach of ACR requirements and that you should have another person working with you.
