Starting over, Any advice ?
Hi everyone, I’m reaching out because I’ve been wanting to get back into the field of radiation therapy, but it’s been several years since I graduated, and unfortunately I did not pass my boards within the required timeframe. I realized too late that I wanted to return to the field and ended up missing the eligibility window. Right now, I honestly don’t know what my options are or where to go from here.
I was wondering if anyone here has gone through something similar and would be willing to share what path they took whether that involved repeating the program, changing careers, or finding another route within healthcare. Or even just switching from RTT to MRI or CT.
During clinicals, I really loved dosimetry and have been considering pursuing a bachelor’s degree through JPU. I’ve also thought about possibly going into nursing and obtaining my BSN. I currently have my associate’s degree, but it has been years since I’ve been in a clinical setting, and I’ve honestly lost touch with everyone from the field.
Anything would truly be helpful right now, as I don’t really have many people to talk to about this.
Thank you in advance.
