Some Illnesses Cause Fatigue. Feeling fatigued can be like an alarm going off in your body. It may be the first sign that something is wrong. But, fatigue itself is not a disease. For example, many older people live with rheumatoid arthritis, a painful condition that affects the joints, usually in hands or feet. In addition to their pain, people with rheumatoid arthritis often complain of other symptoms such as fatigue.
Ultrasound technologists should complete an accredited training program. Depending on the program, it can take anywhere from one to four years to complete. Accredited ultrasound programs can be found at community colleges (a two-year associateâs degree) or four-year institutions (a bachelorâs degree). Accredited certificate programs are also available for people who have previous healthcare degrees and usually take 12 to 15 months.
Don't waste your time or money on a NON-accredited program. Upon completion and graduation from a NON-accredited program, you must work in the field of sonography for a full year prior to taking your licensing examinations. But, you will have a hard time finding an employer to hire you, unless you are licensed.here are links provided for each program, which will give you additional information (including course duration, prerequisites): http://www.caahep.org/Find_An_Accredited... Many people, myself included, go to school to become a radiologic technologist, before continuing to ultrasound school.
