Jessica Dixon: A Journey as a Dedicated Ultrasound Technologist: A Commitment to Care and Continuous Learning

As a Registered Ultrasound Technologist with over 17 years of experience, Jessica’s career has been driven by a deep passion for providing exceptional care to women, ensuring they receive the highest level of support and attention in navigating their healthcare needs. Over the years, she has learned that offering quality care is not just about the technical aspects of the job but also about creating a supportive environment for patients, helping them feel comfortable and empowered during what can sometimes be a stressful experience.

Jessica’s work ethic has always been rooted in a commitment to continuous learning. Healthcare, particularly in the field of ultrasound technology, is constantly evolving. Advancements in technology, changes in medical protocols, and new research mean that there is always something new to learn. She believes that by staying current with the latest developments in her field, she is better equipped to offer the best possible care to her patients. This dedication to learning is what led her to pursue a bachelor’s degree in health administration management.

Studying Health Administration has broadened her understanding of the larger healthcare system, allowing her to see how patient care fits into a bigger picture of organizational management and leadership. By gaining skills in administration, her aim is to enhance not only her technical abilities but also her capacity to contribute to the improvement of healthcare services on a broader scale.

Throughout Jessica’s career, she has worked with countless women, guiding them through ultrasound procedures and ensuring they understand the process. It’s her goal to provide a reassuring presence, making sure each patient knows they are in capable hands. This passion for patient-centered care, combined with her drive for professional growth, fuels her journey every day as an ultrasound technologist with Bexa.

Jessica chose to join the BEA because of her deep commitment to giving back to women who may not have the financial means to access necessary mammograms or those who are fearful or anxious about the pain or radiation associated with routine screenings. Through her work with the BEA, she aims to alleviate those fears and provide a safer, less invasive alternative, making early detection accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation.

Jessica is excited about the possibilities that continued education will offer and how it will enhance the quality of care she provides. It is her belief that by remaining dedicated to both learning and patient care, she can make a lasting impact on the lives of the women she serves, aligning with the BEA’s mission—Leaving No Woman Behind.
