“…In addition, this study revealed a gap forming between the need for human resources in relationship to the need for services, equipment, and examinations. Findings from the study predicted that there will be a shortfall of radiographers during the 18 years analyzed, with a significant expected shortfall to be reached by 2030 [17].…”

“…This will allow for expansion in this area of study at a later date. For example, a research study that focused on the supply and demand of radiographers in Lithuania was conducted in 2012 [17]. The aim of this study was to analyze the need and demand for radiographers and to provide a prognosis for the time period of 2012-2030 [17].…”

Curriculum has achieved a varied record of success in influencing health based practices and developing professional skills. Designing and implementing an effective radiologic technology educational program curriculum requires a disciplined pedagogical approach where the instructor performs a thorough situational analysis, develops a theory based and pragmatic learning plan, and implements a course of study in accordance with the established educational guidelines and requirements. Diligent efforts are needed to enhance the relationship amongst curriculum developers and evaluators. The collection of information at the formative stage: followed by process evaluation to assess implementation as the curriculum progresses, and summative evaluation to assess impact is required for accreditation of program in the United States by the Joint Review Committee for Education in Radiologic Technology. Formative evaluation research is used to enhance effectiveness of the curriculum, guide development of teaching and learning strategies, and reveal promising and ineffective components of curriculum. This review of literature provides evidence as to what is considered to be the best practice in the program evaluation/accreditation process.

“…Metodika. Į radiologijos technologo studijas priimamų studentų skaičiaus prognozė yra dalis platesnio tyrimo "Radiologijos technologų pasiūlos ir poreikio prognozė Lietuvoje 2012 -2030 m.", kuriame buvo prognozuota specialistų pasiūla ir poreikis pagal du scenarijus: vidutinį ir perspektyvinį [20]. Šiame tyrime, vertinant ir lyginat tarpusavyje, labiausiai tikėtinas radiologijos technologų pasiūlos ir poreikio prognozes perspektyvinių scenarijų atvejais buvo prognozuotas reikiamas stojančių į studijas skaičius iki 2030 m., siekiant patenkinti specialistų poreikį darbo rinkoje.…”

“…Šis radiologijos technologų programose studijuojančių studentų poreikio tyrimas atliktas remiantis daug platesne tyrimo metodika, kuri jau buvo taikyta atliekant tyrimą "Radiologijos technologų pasiūlos ir poreikio prognozė Lietuvoje 2012-2030 m." [20]. Priimamų studentų skaičius kasmet į "Radiologijos" studijų programas, kurios vykdomos nuo 2013 metų Kauno kolegijoje ir Klaipėdos universitete, prognozuotas remiantis bei tarpusavyje lyginant labiausiai tikėtinus -perspektyvinius radiologijos technologų pasiūlos ir poreikio prognozavimo scenarijus [20].…”

Radiographer Training in Lithuania: Prospects of the Planning for the Number of Entrants

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Over the last two decades, a number of studies have been conducted on the planning of human resources in various professional qualifications of the healthcare sector in various parts of the world. The studies evaluated the supply and demand (as well as factors affecting them) of human resources in healthcare, yet no studies have been conducted in Lithuania on the planning of the number of radiographers as human resources in the healthcare system. The aim of this study was to estimate the prospective number of students accepted for studies in radiography up to 2030 in order to satisfy the need for these specialists in the labor market. Methods. The prognostication of the number of students accep- ted for studies in radiography is part of a more extensive study “The Prognosis of the Supply and Demand for Radiographers in Lithuania for 2012 – 2030”, where the supply and demand for those specialists were prognosticated according to two scenarios – the mean and the prospective ones [20]. In this study, we evaluated and compared the most likely prognoses of the supply and demand for radiographers according to the prospective scenario, and prognosti- cated the required number of entrants until the year 2030 to satisfy the demand for these specialists in the labor market. Results. The evaluation of the prospective scenario of the supply and demand for radiographers until the year 2030 showed a gap between the supply and demand for these specialists, which is likely to increase from 2016-2017 on. In 2020, the shortage was predicted to be 0.13 position per 10,000 population, and in 2030 – 0.37 position per 10,000 population. To avoid the predicted shortage of these specialists and to meet the need for them in the prospective scenario, the number of students accepted for studies of radiography should be increased by nearly one-fourth, compared to the current numbers. Conclusions. To meet the prognosticated demand for radio- graphy specialists according to the prospective scenario (which is most likely), the yearly number of entrants should be increased by up to 30% during the period of 2013-2026
