MRI CLINICALS

The end of one semester of clinicals is here. Looking back at the past few months I realize how much I have learned in MRI. Yet, I also realize there is so much more to still learn. This week I was offered a full time position in MRI which I gladly accepted. Now the pressure is really on to learn it all. I will be working second shift- 11am to 9:30pm. The majority of my shift I will be working alone. This is even more pressure for me to really master the skills required for MRI. I am nervous to leave me comfort zone of special procedures, but am so happy to be working in the area I am studying. It will also be a stress relief to only be at work 40 hours a week instead of 52 that I am there now. I know that I am capable of scanning many different body parts if they are routine. I am nervous that when a difficult case presents itself I won't know how to handle it. I'm sure I will have plenty of training before I ever start working alone.
