Something desperately needs to be done to keep US technologists from developing WRMSD! This is causing too many to end their careers.

There needs to be regulation or a national committee organization for sonographers to avoid human rights abuse. I feel like we are not valuable and replaceable and that’s what hiring facilities think .

This is a real concern. No person should be forced to perform more exams that is physically capible

I've been scanning for 26 years. Half of that time in pain. Most of the arthritis that I have is in my neck, upper back and shoulders. I hope that this is a large step in helping others in ultrasound.

There is too much quanity in workplaces that is taking away from Quality. There are many patient advocates but I think Sonographers should have advocates as well. We work hard, get taken advantage of and are not taken seriosly and seem to not have respect from other medical workers.

I wish costs of more ergonomic machines would be more affordable since our facility can't afford one, we're stuck with an old machine that is not so ergonomic.
Quit cutting Sonographer careers short!!
