Turner Talks with Cheryl Turner: Switching Careers: From Clinic to Corporate (CE ARRT)

What options are available for radiographers and radiation therapists who desire to move away from clinical practice? In this course, we will speak with professionals who have done just that; we will talk with former practitioners who have found fulfilling careers as corporate representatives. The panel members will describe the skills and traits needed to secure a job with an applicable vendor and will explain the duties required once you are working in that role. How does working outside of a clinical setting meet the desires of those professionals who still want to have an active part in providing patient care? The panel will discuss how corporate or vendor representatives play a vital role in ensuring quality patient care.
