Part of a Sonographer's Job Besides Scanning: Job Tasks

Hi guys! It's 2021 and I am back! Now that I've been working more in the field, I am ready to share what I know! Thank you so much for the support and love you all have provided me.

As a sonographer, your job is to take ultrasound pictures right? Well there's more to it!
In this video i'll tackle in on what is involved before and after scanning!

As always feel free to message me on IG @kristydms this is where you can talk to me directly and the best way to ask your questions!

Please make a video on ergonomics!!! That’s the only thing that is making me hesitant about the field!!!

please keep these coming! im really looking into doing this career and i was so intrigued on listening to you

I am considering this field. I was trying for PA and then PT but the waiting is killing me. I work in the ER and sort of burnt out after 18yrs. At 55 years old I'm looking for a field where I can pretty much not burn myself out. I have a BS degree but my GPA is too low and that's the reason why PA and PT school aren't giving me a chance.

I really appreciate this video. Been researching on careers that are sustainable & I can potentially use to migrate. Love from Jamaica 💛

I just recently am thinking about going into this field! Your videos have been insanely helpful ❤

[samanthamitchellprete]

I have a pacemaker that I've had since I was a newborn pretty much and I've literally grew up with cardiovascular sonography as part as my life and honestly has always been very interesting. I want to be a Cardiovascular sonographer but im don't sure what other options are out there

[cathytran]

Yay, excited to see your new video! I think a good video would be how do you take care of yourself to stay healthy for being a sonographer, do you go to chiropractor or get massages, or foam roll, etc =) You're looking great Kristy !

This field seems so interesting I really would like to go to school for it ❤️

[emmap.]

Thanks for giving us the details of the job. Great insight. ❤

This was so informative thank you so much for sharing !

[relaxin]

This was really helpful, thank you. I'm considering switching careers to sonography. I was wondering what percentage of the time you spend writing reports/ doing computer work (not including the sonography machine as computer work)? Thank you so much in advance

[jenniferemery]

So do you get your own exam room when working at a office rather than hospital? or do you share it with other techs when your not there?

[uzbekistansiberia]

so you have to have very good visual memory? so you write the report right after? oh no, i have bad memory or is it you take notes to yourself then write it at the end of the day?

[rajanpoudel]

I love watching yours vids .❤ Can you pls tell salary range for sonographer

[MissCosmicKitty]

Hi! Do you worry about your biomechanics and hands/wrist issues in the future? Im thinking about going into sonography after im done my undergraduate next year, but am a bit worried about this? Thanks for the videos :)

[nicolemickley]

Can I ask a specific question? My interview is next week and then aptitude test on 3/11. The test will cover some 3D spatial ability testing, and a little bit of physics. Do you know where I can get practice with the 3D spatial ability? As far as physics, what do you think would be the most helpful to brush up on.

[kaohlylee]

How do you maintain a poker face when you see abnormalities of the baby? And how do you cope with that kind of news?

[dangbinh]

Hey! First off, I love your videos. Please keep doing what you are doing. I have a quick question though, if I am not wrong, you got a bachelor in DMS, right? Do you know any other bachelor degree that is accepted when one taking SPI or ARDMS? (ex: radiology? biology?)

[shaterahsawyer]

I know this is a year old video but is this field age friendly😬 I’m 38 looking to make a career shift and back in the day ( early 20s) I wanted to do this.

Is it possible to become a sonographer and specialize so that one isn't dealing with internal/invasive exams? I'm quite interested in the field, and I have the right mentality to deal with the reality of the pathologies, but I'm genuinely not interested in doing internal exams. I was thinking Cardiac Sonography, but I don't want to be in a specialty without plenty of job openings.
