we need to be enlightening the public on our profession and what we do as technicians instead of handing over a skill that keeps us employed to someone whom is unlicensed. There needs to be sterile prep and proper procedure and if I wasn’t the only one in clinic other than the doctor who can place IVC and intubate then there wouldn’t be a point in my clinic keeping me employed at my salary. We should be educating the public on what we do, so the public expects their clinics to employ technicians, not taking away the skills that we had to learn, go to school for, earn a degree, and take a national exam.
