Successful strategies for retaining and recruiting imaging specialists: a two-year perspective.
Strategies for retaining and recruiting of imaging personnel must focus on job enrichment through personal and professional growth opportunities; support and recognition for continuing education activities that promote those goals; and compensation and benefit programs that are commensurate with increased expectations and responsibilities. In this article, the author describes the process used to develop and successfully implement a comprehensive, integrated strategic plan, whose central focus is a multi-modality career path. Also discussed are the benefits realized over the past two years in the Department of Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine at Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center in Chicago.
