No Lunch Breaks When You’re An MRI Tech

[@Mindmymind-OG]

We ask healthcare professionals to take care of us, our family, and our friends, and we can't even give them real breaks? Then we wonder why they have such bad burnout...

[@Josh-fp2qn]

It's a mystery. We might need a 20 year study to get to the bottom of it.

[@AshleyLegare]

I agree..that’s pretty pathetic..

[@TheGriteater]

Preach!!!

[@landrewmackinnon4888]

Start by being on time.

[@thatguy3v]

Be sure to drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. Keep it Tremendous

[@sulla1537]

No breaks as a nurse, a therapist, a doctor, a phlebotomist, an administrator. If you’re in healthcare you generally don’t get a break and more of a convenience based breather when caseload is low or shit’s not hitting the fan. Even then there’s prep or catch up to do.

Administrators definitely get their breaks

[@Taylor-tb8wz]

Admins get breaks and enough time to paint their nails while they attempt to understand what even goes on in the hospital while somehow being qualified to make rules

[@sar6562]

asked my therapist and she told me she always has at least 15 min for lunch, up to 2-3 hours.

[@connorinaba3166]

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.

[@hopijohnson9422]

I didn’t know y’all place IVs! Great skill to have.

[@dem890]

You can learn that skill in 10 mins though.

Hope your department doesn’t deduct your lunch break from your timesheet.

Interesting video. But I would’ve thought latex gloves would be worn when prepping the IV supplies.

[@epicnature3658]

Don’t have too. It’s not a sterile environment. Just keep the needle sterile.

I have an mri appointment in an hour and 22 mins 😂

Nah sister we have like only 15 min or less for one part of a back and 20 min for joints and almost hour for pelvis+contrast. And we have full day of patients 16 hours of hard work and no time for food at all)

Hospital shoes are gross, yet you walk around with regular foot wear everywhere else and not call that nasty 🫠

[@jessirome96]

Is there MRI school or is it just under radiology tech ?

[@CritterFritter]

MRI is most often learned by on the job training (OJT). The principals are covered in rad tech training, and students make rotations through the department, perhaps a month at a time along with other areas, to get a flavor of what’s going on. With various imaging protocols being pre-loaded into the imaging software, aspiring MRI techs are able to strike a balance between learning equipment, providing mindful patient care and maintaining records/compliance standards. The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists offers a post grad registry test and certification. Many states do not require registry as MRI does not utilize “ionizing radiation”.

[@dianimartinez1477]

thanks for sharing!!! I would like to know the difference between MRI technologist and MRI technician! Can a Technician do the job of a technician or vice versa?

[@MrSleepless]

Its the same exact profession

[@imanilwilliams]

What type of exposure do you have working with an MRI machine?

[@epicnature3658]

Mri is non ionizing radiation. You’re exposed to a magnetic field but there are no published studies regarding long term effects.

[@SpliffProductions]

Here's a tip, don't wear nail polish / paint when working with medications and in healthcare, how about that?

[@Germanlanguagelearning-pn6jp]

Do you face any problem after staying in radiation for long?

[@CritterFritter]

MRI uses no ionizing radiation (X-rays), but does use a strong magnetic field. That said, the technologist must be very careful in screening patients for metallic objects, especially people who might have certain medical implants, metal shards in eyes, ICU patients who come to the department for tests, and other allied health personnel.

Вскрыть шприц для внутривенного введения контрастного вещества без стерильных перчаток категорически запрещается!!

[@fluffytail6355]

As a nurse with 30 years experience, it is NOT necessary to open a sterile syringe with gloves. However, her hands should be clean and obviously she didn’t video hand washing that she’s been doing all day and between patients. She did exactly as she should have in opening sterile packages - nothing got contaminated and no break in protocol. She is using correct aseptic technique. The only time you require sterile gloves is to handle items in surgery when you are dressed as a sterile person. Even the surgical assistants do not require gloves. I think you need to review the requirements of surgical glove use.

​@@fluffytail6355it might be different outside of America.

[@somerandomgirl1]

do you also do sonography?

[@michaelscottspapercompany6373]

I doubt she does sonography. Since she is an MRI tech that will be her main modality. Sonography is another two years to do after rad school.

[@fluffytail6355]

Some techs can get a double degree but in the main course, multiple modalities are not taught. Sonography is a different modality and a different training program within the diagnostic imaging umbrella.

[@DomnSan]
