Well I mean I work in a nursing home right now so I deal with the gross bodily fluids, ohhh everyday. Haha. I tend to have a weak stomach sometimes, not all of the time though but since working in the nursing home bodily fluids don't seem to phase me. Why is it that nursing is so stressful? Is it the people or the work??? I am just full of questions. I am afraid if I pick radiology and once I graduate, I won't be able to find a job. I live in KY by the way.

If I do decide to be an RT though how long would it generally take me to cross train into another field???

I have shadowed an RT before and I work in a nursing home right now so I see what a nurse does everyday to an extent. I really thought at first I wanted to do radiology but I don't want to get bored with it either. I am a people person and I like to interact with lots of people and change things up all the time if you know what I mean. I am having a really hard time making this decision. I have heard before someone mention a Radiologist Nurse. Is there such thing and what do they do??? Keep your comments coming please because I enjoy reading them and they are helping me think a lot. I just keep jumping back and forth because I think I have made up my mind and then I find another reason to change it.

I am a college student and I recently got accepted into both the nursing and radiology program at my college. I am having a difficult time deciding which to pick because this is my future that I am deciding on. I get so many different opinions from people at home I just thought I could maybe turn here for a little bit of help. I know my decision is going to have to be the one that will make me happy but I also want to have a job when I graduate. I need opinions on what both the fields are like. Help!
