Clinical Experience
Students begin their clinical education at Arnot Ogden approximately six weeks after entrance. This enables our students to promptly begin correlation of their didactic education to the clinical environment. Clinical is scheduled 8 am to 3:30 pm with a rotating 10:30 am to 6 pm afternoon rotation. Clinical sites currently include Arnot Ogden Medical Center, Horseheads Medical Office Building, and Corning Medical Office Building. Students must be CPR certified before starting clinical. Arnot Ogden students obtain experience with open-heart patients, intensive-care infants, and trauma patients as well as outpatient and in-patient services. Students spend one rotation in each specialty area (Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Ultrasound, etc.) in their senior year. These experiences prepare our students for employment as radiologic technologists in various employment situations.
