Good jobs in the medical field with a really good pay? |
What are some good jobs in the medical field that pay really good? And, how many years in college would I have to take if I wanted that job? Nuclear medicine, radiation therapy, sonography. http://www.asrt.org/content/rts/surveyre... Brain surgeon. 8 years of post-secondary school, plus several more of specialist training, internship, residency. X-ray tech. 2 yrs Nurse, 4 yrs Docs, 8-12-15 years Get the classified ads of the big city nearest you, check the salaries offered. well a nursing career is always good because you can always advance. you can start as an LPN which is a one year program. to be a RN you only need 2 years. If you have masters which is like 6 years you are basically like a doctor. since the demand of nurses is growing the sign on bonuses are big. Tech jobs can be a good choice if you don't want to go to school for a long time and rack up lots of loan debt. X-Ray/Radiology techs and Sleep Lab/EEG techs can practically choose their positions, and generally make $18-$28/hr, depending on experience and certifications. Average time in school for an Associate's degree in these fields is 18months. You'll get more money if you take the certification tests in the fields. If your a bit of a night owl, Sleep Lab tech is good- many work 3 days @ 12hrs/day( figure 7pm-7am), and then off for 4, or work 4 days at 10hrs with 3 off. Best of luck! I'm a business manager in a large metro area health system. Check out pharmacy! Pharmacy has a lot of advantages. These are: 1) Takes less time to finish compared to med school 2) If you plan everything correctly you can graduate pharm school when you are only 23 years old 3) Starting salary is 75-150k depending on location and need 4) You do not have to deal with blood 5) You will finish faster than your medical school student counterparts 6) You will always have a job, even if you;re 99 year old 7) Most jobs are 9-5 meaning that you will get to have a family life 8) http://www.getintopharmacyschool.com... CONS 1) Insurance - enough said 2) Dealing with patients (sometimes, the bad ones, suck) |
