General CommentsReplacement of traveler to ensure continuity of
patient care whilst new staff are being trained in addition to
reducing burnout of existing staff. SBAR: Justification for
Interventional Radiology Traveler Technologists During New Staff
TrainingS SituationThe Interventional Radiology (IR) department
will be onboarding new technologists to fill critical staffing
gaps. However, due to the specialized nature of IR procedures and
the steep learning curve, full competency for new staff can take up
to 12 months. In the interim, maintaining safe, efficient
operations and full procedural coverage requires the continued use
of experienced traveler technologists.B BackgroundIR is a
high-acuity, procedure-driven department that relies on a skilled,
knowledgeable team to ensure patient safety, clinical accuracy, and
efficiency. Training new technologists involves extensive
shadowing, equipment familiarization, procedural preparation,
product and anatomy knowledge, and compliance with safety
protocols. Historically, operating without adequate coverage during
onboarding has led to procedure delays and increased staff burnout.
A AssessmentWithout traveler support during this training volumes
may be reduced, affecting patient access and departmental
revenueExisting staff will face unsustainable workloads, risking
burnout and potential turnoverNew hires may feel rushed into roles
they are not yet prepared for, increasing the risk of errors and
undermining long-term retentionTraining quality may suffer,
compromising the effectiveness and confidence of new
staffMaintaining experienced travelers ensures that patient care
continues uninterrupted and that new hires are trained thoroughly
and safely over the necessary timeline.R RecommendationContinue the
use of IR traveler technologists for up to 9 months while new staff
are trained to full competency. This strategy ensures consistent
procedural support, maintains throughput, protects existing staff
from overextension, and allows for high-quality, deliberate
training ultimately leading to stronger retention and departmental
stability. No. of Positions: 1/1. Position creation Replacement
