Registered Radiologist Assistants often encounter the challenge of balancing multiple responsibilities, such as performing advanced imaging procedures, preparing patients, and assisting radiologists with image interpretation. In a busy department, RRAs must manage time efficiently and prioritize urgent cases while maintaining high standards of patient care and accurate documentation. Additionally, effective communication with radiologists, technologists, and referring physicians is crucial to ensure smooth workflow and optimal patient outcomes.

Current needs are Monday through Fridays 6 to 8 hours needed per day. No Evenings, No Weekends, No Nights, No Holidays.

While under supervision, injections may be performed by a certified and/or licensed radiologic technologist, MRI technologist, sonographer, registered radiologist assistant, nurse, physician assistant, physician, or other appropriately credentialed health care professional.

The radiologist or other provider directly supervising the injection of contrast media should be trained in, and periodically demonstrate competence in:

3. Understanding when to call for assistance and how to activate emergency response system(s)

4. Basic Life Support (BLS): This provider of direct supervision must be immediately available to furnsh assistance and direction throughout the performance of the procedure. This does not mean that the supervising provider or radiologist must be present in the room where and when the procedure is performed. However, there should be at least one person who can recognize adverse events related to contrast media administration in attendance (in the room or in an adjacent control room) to observe the patient during and immediately after the injection and summon medical assistance as needed.
