Pros
I was working with very experienced and knowledgeable CT technologists. Gained valuable experience quickly due to the huge volume of patients that came in for CT's. We had a nurse, thank god, to start our lines (about half the time) and gave beta blockers to the Cardiac patients. However, the Techs had to start lines a lot too because of how busy we were.
Cons
The company would schedule all studies 10 minutes apart and take walk in's too. This included all CTA studies. Cardiac studies would be 40 minutes but they still took walk in's regardless. Front desk constantly made mistakes with the registration and we had to go to them to have it fixed which ate away at our time to scan. When we finally got the patient in we also had to ask about 10-15 questions about their history. We were constantly rushing patients in and rushing them out as quickly as we could because 10 minutes just wasn't enough time to do everything and then scan. There were just a lot of angry patients that wanted to know why they had to wait so long for their scan. Overall, the take way to all the cons is that it leads to poor patient satisfaction.
