10 Things I don’t like about being a radiographer 

Thats why I always wear a mask when doing chest xrays... 1. Pts dont even care that they are coughing on your face 2. Some pts are not fit enough to see that they are doong aint cool 3. Once got really sick from a paeds patient who coughed on my face 😢and i still had to come to work like that... the nurses felt so bad for me they ended up buying me some meds and i was working a Nightshift 😂so you can imagine, you cant sleep at home, you cant sleep at work, you are sick to the bone and you are busy helping sickly people... after i got better i swore to myself to never let such happen

I really appreciate your content 😭it gives me an honest and transparent insight of what to expect in this field. KEEP IT UP SIS♥️♥️💐✨

You're very beautiful Theo🥺🥺❤❤❤Such an inspiration, I'd also like to be a radiographer

I work in France as radiographer, I 'm telling you that even here in France we've got the same problem. Nurses keep on calling us lazy guys, you only know how to press the button, and shouting at patient to take a deep breath and hold up the breath. there is always that prejudice on us being what they want to accuse us for.

I’m studying Radiography in the UK now my two little babies are starting school and your vids are very helpful, so thank you 🙏 You have a beautiful speaking voice and face!

nice video, i completely agree with you. i am a radiographer too but now i work as CT and MRI Technologist as i got to work on CT MRI in starting of my career and got really good hands on it so i belive if we work as a CT/Mri Technologist we need not to rove around that much, hassle free work but criritcal cases but once you get use to it and have the confidence its nice but if i talk about x-ray i really agree with your words, nurses really don't like us sometimes.

I'm waiting for my practical year as a radiographer, can't wait but I'm nervous too

Haha... Just how I screamed yes at point 2, we've had nurses saying we are lazy and we don't even do much in the x-ray department! One nurse once told my colleague how difficult she's making her job because she had to be assisted when she had to do a portable x-ray in the ward, nobody wanted to help her, and when she finally when to a specific nurse to ask for help, she was told she's making their job difficult!!! 💔💔

Hi Theo, firstly I wanna appreciate the effort you made in taking this video for us. Well I'm currently going though a rough patch of doing a degree that I do not like at all because of family pressure. But from this video I got the more depth insight of what Radiography is about. With my photography abilities, I really do find it interesting hence it has part of the things I like, not to say it is more about photography. Nevertheless, thank you sm Theo.

Patella views and a patient has POP..like really. We are not magicians. And people think our course takes a few months to study.No it's not photography🙄 .And yes Sis we are very fertile 😄 . The competition is just female thing.Radiographers should be compensated for the danger we exposed to..really enjoyed this video. Thank u

had to laugh at this one...there is always a pg radiographer...very true

thank you so much for this sis Theo ❤️. at least I have some kind of insight on what I'll be getting myself into (I want to be a radiographer; still in high school tho). also, if you don't mind me asking, which university did you go to?

Because rad tech with a background in MA OR Certified in IV CAN DO THE SAME THING THE NURSE DO

What are the courses a radiography student studies in year 2,3,4,5

This is soooo relatable Theo oh my gosh. Another one is when you tell a requesting doctor a certain view isn't obtainable they come at you with a Google search result showing you "no Wikipedia says it's possible"🙄

I used to think all that only happens in Zambia 😂😂😂😂😂. I didn't know we all had the same rough end. Especially the part were they expect you to do impossible views😜.

You are looking so beautiful thank you so much , my question is, should you wish to go back to school full time and study something else ? Or do you think you can survive in Radiography field

I almost came guns blazing until you said "old age nurses", 😂 very true... They don't even like us as young nurses like ku wow nje shame

Funny, my first job was at a hospital as a casual and I was getting more than full time hours just working the shifts of women on maternity leave 😂

You are so right. I thought we only faced these in Nigeria😂😂😂

Hi, I'm hoping to go to university to study radiography. Do you have any tips for what i should expect at university and the kind of things i should I know before applying? ❤

Hey Theo, Can you do a PGCE with this degree? Also which rooms of growth are there for this degree? Please educate me I'm honestly worried about my future.

I'm radiographer ,u are in which country?

I dont understand the bit about pregnancy and not being allowed to do xrays etc because of exposure. Surely everyone should be protected enough from the xrays to begin with? no?

As for Beyoncés of the hospital😂 Anyway o montle lala❤️

The nurse radiographers war is just on another level . I certainly agree with the limited growth . . Ohw by the way you look beautiful 😊

Have you worked in a Private company before? You’d love it

Hi Theo, I have been qualified as a diagnostic radiographer for 3 years now and I strongly agree and can relate to what you are saying.

Hey😊 Am yet to start my radiography program..however am being very discouraged because they say that the radiations makes women barren and also radiographers work like for not more than five years..how true is this rumor

What pays more between radiography and pharmacy?

Are the patients dying because of the radiation ?

Am glad that ur created am starting my course soon

Theo, I would like to ask that if you could start university again would you choose a different career path? If so what would it be or what was your second option?

I have qualified and now doing this job and I hate it..It’s the people that you work with that spoil it…Constant bullying, blaming and scaremongering has caused me to have panic attacks and I feel I am checking every action I do 4-5 times…It’s draining..I just want to be happy

Lastly ,lemme drop something before I go. Your a very beautiful young lady😄🤍👍🏾

Hey Theo can one get accepted into the program with maths lit ?

Gal what is the difference between Radiography and Sonography

Hi, what type of school did you do for radiography.

Hi, do you mind stating all of the types of radiographer growth?

Is it the doctors getting them pregnant?? 😂😂

Hello, or to thank you for the wonderful video, and I think that Western and European countries in this field are very primitive, I am from the Middle East and the situation is different here as we attend the College of Health Sciences for five years, four academic years and a clinical year, after which we can attend a master's degree in radiology Diagnostic and writing medical reports or a master's degree in nuclear physics and other interesting programs, and my name is a specialist in radiology, and after the master's degree, you must claim your rights.

The pregnancy cycle🤣🤣

Hi. Does it pay well??

What does "Beyonce of the hospital" mean?

Seems like you practiced at Bara 😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂 number 6

Point number 2&3😭

Can you major in radiography and become a sonographer ?

Theo hi how are you

Income of radiography???❤️

Hi, was your course heavy on math/physics? How hard would it be for someone who's kinda been out of touch for years? Was it for you?

Not pregnant😂😂

would you say that being a radiographer is stressful? is there alot of pressure put on you?

This most be amrica, work place is like war place

Hi,I applied for Radiotherapy and I have a question for you. Which one do you prefer between Radiography and Radiotherapy?

Do Radiographer struggle to get a job ? Especially newly qualified ones ?

Hi there ..If Patient comes for X-Ray dont you were mask?

🥰🥰

Hi Theo! I'm graduating HS student, and Radiography is one of my career choices along with Pharmacy! I wanna ask, is a tall height/bigger build necessary for this profession? I have a super petite build (145cm/4'9" tall). Do you think my small height would make being a radiographer difficult, considering all the heavy lifting, handling large machines, and larger patients? I don't want to see my height as a disadvantage, but I want to hear the opinion of a professional radiographer if it's something I can work around.

Nothing infuriates me than those saying Radiographers are button pushers. There's a lot going on we push and lift patients, we do almost impossible views requested by doctors on patients who are not mobile and you have to make a plan to get all those images. There's a lot going on, my worst was an unprepared barium enema with a very old patient

What procedures/tasks do Radiologic Technologists perform aside from taking x-rays?

you are just SO adorable :)

Can i go from Diagnostic Radiography into Sonography?

Ok You have to understand that working under someone will always have it's numerous disadvantages. It's all in your ability to keep an open mind at the end of the day. You should always try to find joy at your place of work .Get so close with a colleague , swallow the tones of insult trust me ,it's evenly shared even to your superiors. Try to treat yourself to something fun ,maybe every week or so. Have a well structured saving plan (most important) The consciousness of saving by the day, the month ,the year gives you that urge to go on ,cos you know you're definitely heading towards an independent wealthy life😁

i am currently in highschool and i want to pursue radiography then i specialise in obstetrics radiography . so will it be possible for me to proceed to gynae ?

Omg that point about pregnant radiographers made me laugh 🤣

You were probably taught centring point radiography. Find the other way of doing the job which requires accurate collimation. It makes radiography an art form in presentation and dose minimisation. Ensure you don't make the usual mistake of thinking angling the tube changes geometry. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mZPD_gLs5Dw.html Perfect your technique as shown in this cervical spine tutorial. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZcvH11MfgUo.html
