Radiology career change

Are there any human medical x-ray/CT techs here? I am wanting to get out of healthcare but I love radiology and think NDT would be a good fit and wondering what the process would be, what type of schooling, etc. Would being a CT/X-Ray tech would give an advantage? I'm just so tired of the over ordering on patients from providers who have no idea what they are doing. Tired of working with my head on a swivel making sure I don't get punched or stabbed while trying to do their scan (a coworker just went out on leave because she got attacked by a patient and may have to have shoulder surgery from it). Tired of how the second someone gets to radiology they can't move and we have to slide them over to the table, yet the second they get back to their room the walk to the bathroom.
I currently travel around the US for radiology and work 8-16 hour days and have worked multiple weeks in a row. So I am fine with long hours and traveling. Any advice would be amazing. Thank you!!

Few questions, here for min 3 months.

Hi everyone! Healthcare worker, working at the hospital, on the island for minimum 3 months and I have a few questions.

  1. What's the quietest beach to go too? (I know it's a long shot that it will be quiet during the summer, but definitely would like quieter 🤣)

  2. What time do you need to get to the beach to be able to get parking?

  3. What's the best carwash for a SUV? Where I am staying the driveway is under trees, and on a dirt road and my blue is now yellow.

  4. Any other suggestions on things to see or avoid would be appreciated. 🙂
    Thank you!!!
