"Radiologic Technologist of our Society"

The Radiologic Technologist's Creed We believe thet every radiologic technologist should work under the direct supervision of, and be directly responsible to, some member of the Radiological, Medical, Surgical or Dental profession, such member being generally recognized in his profession as being qualified to do the work attempted. We are opposed to the so-called schools (whether conducted by professional men or laymen) who urge the attendance of any or all laymen with the promise of speedy preparation and handsome remuneration for their services. In other words, we are opposed to the commercial school. We believe that the standard for all plate and film work should be established by the professional man doing the work of interpretation, and that is our duty to qualify ourselves to produce the desired standard. We believe that no expression of our opinion regarding treatment, diagnosis or interpretation concerning any patient with whom we work should ever be given to other than the professional man to whom we ar responsible. Looking at Them My parents were a Radiologic Technologist in a government hospitals (Philippine Orthopedic Center & Jose Reyes Memorial Medical Center) working for 18 years of providing a good service in their patients. Whenever I visit them to their work I saw the things that they are doing as a Rad Tech like calling the names of their patients,helping them to position the injured parts to have an x-ray procedure,and release the x-ray films to have the readings of the doctors. Also they are sharing their knowlege to the interns working with them to give additional information to their studies.That's how a simple Radiologic Technolgist do their everyday routine doing their jobs as a professionals. Making Them No#1 Are you aware that there are still Radiologic Technologist that have intellectual minds that can have contribution in the field of medicine? For me, we should compliment those Radiologic Technologists for the dedication that they have given to serve the patients in our society. They play a big role in every people who need their help to identify or discover the illneses that they have inside their body by an x-ray machine. Without them the medical world will be incomplete, because Radiologic Technologists are part of the development in the different profession in medical field. That's why it make me proud to them especially to the Radiologic Technologist of our society.
