Are you or any of your co-workers heavy smokers? Cuz that's what I've heard for years that RT's are the worst smokers (so to speak) in the medical-related fields...

Yes, at most of the places I worked over 50% of the RT's smoked. It's the stress of dealing with life and death on a daily basis. Or at least thats how they explan it.

Thanks, BRC.

I don't work in the medfield but I used to smoke pretty good myself--like 2 packs/day more or less for 24 years; I quit for good 3 1/2 yrs ago--and somehow I collected in my brain that bit of info about RT's and have never forgotten it.

I don't if it's anymore than say RNs or any other health related field, I know quite a few RNs that do. The RTs that do seem to be the older ones, the younger ones not many do, so that may change, and I could say the same for RNs as well.

yeah, I've been out of the field for 10 years now so it probably has changed.
