I'm still taking my prereqs for nursing school and hope to be accepted by next fall. My interest is working in an ER. My question is this, a few months ago, I had to go to the ER for something. I noticed I didn't come into contact with an actual nurse until the nurse came in with my aftercare instructions and billing information.
The guy who did the triage, and the girl who came in to treat me were both "ER Techs" according to their name badges. What exactly is an ER Tech and what kind of training do they have? Sorry for sounding so dumb lol
