The World Health Organization states that access to care is a human right. This means all world citizens should have access to quality health care and services, whenever and wherever they need it. To reach this goal, skilled employees are required at all levels of the healthcare system.
For many low- and middle-income countries, this access is extremely difficult and training and development programs for workers within the field of radiology are often unavailable, only perpetuating the staffing shortage issue.
Of particular concern is staff shortages in radiology and radiotherapy. In this episode, you’ll hear about potential solutions to this problem, including collaboration to facilitate, expand, and improve training coupled with innovations in health technologies.
Today, Ven Virah, Global Contingent Staffing Expert, Workforce Solutions at Siemens Healthineers, is joined by Jeannette Parkes, a clinical director at Access to Care Cape Town and Head of the division of Clinical and Radiation Oncology at Groote Schuur Hospital and the University of Cape Town, as well as Barry Asin, President at Staffing Industry Analysts in Mountain View, California, and Dr. Katja Beitat, Head of Health Tech at Cicada Innovations and Director of Technology and Innovation at Radiology Across Borders in Sydney.
