Abstract:
Existing clinical ladders established in 2005 at Seton Family of Hospitals were updated and put into place in 2008. They were based on established nursing ladders. Original ladders were first established to keep technologists motivated by giving them more responsibilities and opportunities to grow. Ladders also gave the higher performing technologists more compensation for doing more work. Seton Imaging modified the technologist ladder to include non-technical responsibilities as well as some nonhospital activities to enable technologists who consistently go above and beyond their job duties to be promoted up the ladder. The ladder has 62 pathway options for points, so it allows for tailoring to staff interest or site restrictions.
