Technologist Interview Questions

I never dealt with a serious crisis during my shift but I have dealt with numerous anxious patients who afraid to undergo scanning. To deal with this, I would spend time talking and calming them down.

I have experience working with X-rays, CAT scans, and PET scans.

I would bring patient to a room where there is no other patients , and kindly ask whAt was wrong . I would do anything in my power to solve the problem . If patient was still upset I would call my supervisor .

When I was a student in Nursing School, there was a homeless man who was coming down from his high and very agitated. Our instructor asked me to give him a bath. He was disgustingly dirty, mean, and I did not want to do this. I ended up cleaning him with a a bed bath. It took me almost three hours, all the while he cursed at me, screamed I was hurting him and called me names. When I got to his upper thigh, I saw a tattoo of a swastika the size of his leg. I was frozen. I closed my eyes for a second to regroup. This man was homeless, a drug addict, ignorant, and had nothing in this world. He needed ME to care for him. It was a profound learning experience for me. I knew he needed to be cared for and I was the one to do it.

Focus at the task at hand and tune out the negativity.

I described the procedure from start to finish, including suture and potential dressing that would be used.
