And as a thank you, I’ll be giving away a set of "FIT Scrubs" (what I wear)(fitscrubs.com) to a lucky winner. I truly appreciate you all! Thank you for supporting me and believing in me to help you along your journey.**
These are things you SHOULD NOT DO in your first year of clinical rotations. Many of you either are about to or have started your rotations. I know how it is! I was nervous too. I didn't know what to expect and who else to get advice from. But luckily for you... YOU HAVE ME =)
Of course there are many other things you should not do. But I believe what I mentioned in the video got me to where I am today.
So far my trend has been an upload every other week. I'm trying my best to do more, but I do work FT and commute. So if you have you have any questions, leave them down below and I'll reply ASAP.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE

This Covid situation put our whole class in a funk and right when I was just hitting my groove at clinic, the hospitals had to suspend the students from coming in. It’s been about 4 months of no clinic and it sucks because of all the experience we are losing out on but your videos have helped me with staying motivated especially the positioning videos! Keep banging out the videos and much love from Los Angeles! 👍🏼

@@Alyssa-ui7bf thank you! Best advice I can give you: be prepared to mess up & take your time. You will make some mistakes, but you can minimize those mistakes by just taking an extra second to think about what you’re doing. Push yourself, make yourself uncomfortable. It will be scary and intimidating but those are the moments where you will learn the most! At the end of the day, evaluate your mistakes, think about how you can improve, watch some KZfaq videos. You’ll do great!

I'm an older gentleman that decided on a second career at 50, so I went to school to get my X-Ray license. Unfortunately my school closed down due to the government shut down in December of 2018, but I was able to get my XT license right when they closed. My end goal is to work in Nuclear Med or Radiation Therapy (for the money), so I've always planned on getting my RT license so I can finish what I started. I'm planning to go back to school in January 2021, and really excited about getting back into learning.

Greetings, from Las Vegas, Nevada. This is good stuff. It gives me a clearer perspective on clinicals. I just turned in my application for the radiography program today. I always knew this is the right career path for me ever since I volunteered at a hospital and shadowed Rad Techs after my volunteer time. I changed my major multiple times in college thinking I’d be better off in a teaching career, since it seemed like the safest route. I now realize after two years in college that I only live once and it is only right to take a step of faith and go into a career that I enjoy. Thank you for your content.

Just found your channel. Everything your saying I don’t understand lol but it’s because I’m looking into going into a program. I’m currently a patient care tech and met a newly graduated xray technologist. I asked her questions about getting into the program and how difficult it was. She said it’s just ALOT of studying and time management among other things. I’ve decided to give my self 1 year to prepare mentally and financially for this journey. I’ve subscribed and will be following your content all the way up until I hopefully graduate.

Rey, THANK YOU! I found you last week searching for Rad-tech videos on YT. I am relieved, grateful, you have legitimate things to say about becoming a a tech and not just surface fluff like so many others out there. Honestly, what does "what's in my bag" have anything to do with being a good student or professional? Instagram status videos about how you get ready for your day? It was a long, vain, almost fruitless search when I finally tried one of your videos. I am just starting the enrollment process, and have some pre/co-reqs I need to knock out first but I already enjoy listening or watching your videos while I am doing other things. Your video suggestion on Theta waves was interesting; I used hypno-birthing for two of my daughters. Any time I would nap or go to sleep I would listen to positive affirmations or guided imagery on feeling safe, calm, confident. Both those births I rocked in comparison to my first. I love your tips, I'm 38 going into a new profession so many of these are a given, but I heard at the clinical site I shadowed at that "this generation of kids" no one makes eye contact, ask questions, or even really tries. Good advice for younger students with little to no life experience. You validated much of what my inner voice tells me to stop doing. Stop asking so many questions, stop being a kiss a**, stop pestering the actual professionals. I feel I might borrow your "practice makes progress", I usually tell my girls "practices makes possible." I subscribed and hit that bell so keep up the good work. Your energy is fun and infectious.

First rotation and still nervous!

I’m 30 years old and looking to start a career as a rad-tech first then proceeding to a radiation therapist. I feel like i’m getting started a little late in life, and wish I had this passion and drive to start sooner, but, better late than never, right? I was in the Army for 8 years so I’m confident that any situation I will be thrown into as a rad tech couldn’t be as bad as what I experienced in the military, could it? Nevertheless, The task seems pretty daunting. However, your videos have really helped ease my mind and put things into perspective for me.

In my first month in clinicals and I'm slowly starting to slow my mind down and some things are starting to click. I'm being trained by techs that just graduated so they're super controlling because they don't want to be responsible for any of my mistakes, but things are slowly getting better. The one experienced tech has a lot more faith in me but he's not always going to be there so I'm working on adjusting my attitude!

There's pros and cons to both. Do what fits your calling. If you haven't already, I would suggest shadowing. Don't worry about age when it comes to your passion! Just be open to learning from younger techs (it seems to be a common thing with older techs).

I've been working as CT MRI radiographer in pH but now I moved here in Singapore and kinda worried because after 8 year of working I'll be assigned to do a general radiography. It's a bit shameful because it feels like I'm back to zero But I know everything will be ok because I am 100% willing to do my best and excited to learn new things which I forgot when I was a CT MRI radiographer. looking forward for more videos from you... thank you.

Clinicals have been fun and most techs have been nice! Not a fan of lab and lecture. We have one instructor, who is on a power trip and the other is so particular on lab exams. God forbid, we use a different technique on an exam. Sometimes people have different styles of learning. I often turn to KZfaq tutorials such as yours to learn technique/positions. I like your videos! They're very helpful. I have a hard time following my lab instructor's teaching style. I don't have this much anxiety during clinicals! That's the only thing that's pushing me to stick with it! Sorry for the rant!

I believe so. This is something you’re not used to. It’s not general ed. Once you see the material enough times repeatedly, it’ll stick. As for as tips, i recommend you ask a friend, cohort, family member to help position them. What are your top 3 exams/positions you repeat on? I’ll be filming Friday.
