Implementation of a multimodality program.
Economic changes in the health care system have presented a unique opportunity for radiographers and other imaging personnel. Hospital administrators are becoming aware of the advantages of employing multiskilled technologists. The single-skilled technologist must recognize the benefits of additional education and overcome the negative perceptions of the profession. A well-conceived educational program developed and managed by a continuing education department will provide not only the required didactic and clinical courses to ensure competency, but also recognized credentialing for each modality.
