Many inactive radiologic technologists are interested in returning to the workforce. Over 90% would consider reentry courses, offering a solution to the personnel shortage.

Area of Science:

  • Radiologic technology
  • Healthcare workforce studies
  • Professional re-entry programs

Background:

  • Current shortages exist in radiologic technologist personnel.
  • Inactive technologists represent a potential, yet largely untapped, workforce resource.
  • Re-entry programs can facilitate the return of qualified professionals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the interest of inactive radiologic technologists in returning to practice.
  • To determine the potential of inactive technologists as a solution to workforce shortages.
  • To evaluate willingness to participate in reentry education.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed to inactive radiologic technologists in Indiana.
  • The survey collected data on interest in returning to the workforce.

  • The survey also assessed interest in reentry courses.
  • Main Results:

    • Nearly 60% of inactive technologists expressed interest in returning to work.
    • More than 90% indicated a willingness to take reentry courses.
    • This suggests a significant pool of available talent.

    Conclusions:

    • Inactive radiologic technologists represent a viable source for addressing staffing shortages.
    • Targeted reentry courses are highly likely to be utilized by interested professionals.
    • Implementing re-education programs could effectively bolster the radiologic technologist workforce.
