How This Book Will Benefit Your Students
High school students who are interested in a career in medical ultrasound sometimes find it difficult to navigate the steps on how to get started. Information can be overwhelming - or surprisingly difficult to find.
Compounding the problem is the fact that accredited programs are limited in many areas of the country, and what programs can be found typically accept fewer than 20 students each year. "Diagnostic Medical Sonography - The Definitive Guide to Planning Your Career" is a workbook to help students learn about the field, recognize the importance of accreditation in ultrasound programs, and prepare for a successful application by understanding how to meet the prerequisites.
It is critical for high school students exploring their career and post-secondary education options in ultrasound to understand what accreditation means within the industry. Samantha's book will walk the student through an assessment to help them discover if this is indeed the right career for them, and then how to find, select, and successfully apply to an accredited ultrasound program. Additionally, the book follows the students through their ultrasound program to help them master clinicals, find their first job, and ultimately excel in their chosen career.
Samantha is available to discuss how her book can be integrated into a school's counseling resources or to participate in any virtual events or workshops that may support students' educational and career planning needs.
