I'm a CNA now working in the PACU def thinking of being a tech or first assistant. Crazy I was flipping burgers a year ago 😅. Seeing black brothers doctors and other nurses definitely made me want to strive for more.

This guy is one of the most likable people I've seen on youtube.

I wanted to be a surgical technologist but I am currently a travel sterile processing tech making an average of $1,400/week during cheap winter months and an average of $1,800/week in the summer months. So scrub tech wouldn't be a significant pay raise, if any. So instead I chose a specialty such as Cardiovascular Technology and soon to graduate in May 2024. Now I'll be making $45/hr in a cheap city or I can drive an hour away for $55-60/hr starting rate working at a hospital for 2 years for the experience to get ready to travel and make $3000-$4000/week as a RCIS. So for those of you looking at a change go for something where you are going to start off high pay such as Cardiovascular Technologist, X-Ray Tech, and the best associate degree will be Dental Hygienist. Dental Hygienist make bank right out the door even more than a nurse so if you don't mind cleaning teeth definitely go for that! Good luck to everyone make that 💰! Yeszir
