Massage Therapy, X-ray Tech Or Lpn? Career Help Plz.?


This Question From LPN Nursing Careers | 1 Answer


I am a CNA here in FL, but I don’t want to do that all my life. Not that I don’t enjoy helping the patients, but just that it’s a tough job physically. Anyway, I was looking into other careers that I might be interested. I thought about LPN, but don’t know if I really want to deal with the stress. X-Ray seems to be very appealing to me. But I really like Massage Therapy, but don’t know if I could make a decent living with it. I just want to have a satisfying career, that I really enjoy, and as least stress as possible! haha. I work nights and every other weekend, and I don’t like it. I work nights now because is calmer at the nursing home, not so much to do in terms of patient care (day time is really crazy). I wanted to go back working days and weekdays, if possible. What do you guys think?

    Being a radiologic technologist (the correct term for x-ray tech) can be very stressful and physically demanding. We are also needed 24/7/365, so no guarantees of you getting a day shift. You can find more info about the field here: https://www.asrt.org/content/aboutthepro…
    Just something to think about.
