There is a growing local and national shortfall of certified tumor registrars (CTRs). To address this concern in our state, the Rhode Island Cancer Registry (RICR) created an internship program with the hope of attracting new people to the cancer registry field. This article outlines the reasons why RICR believes the central registry is uniquely well-suited to training new personnel, given our unparalleled statewide perspective on the accuracy and completeness of reporting at every hospital and freestanding radiation center that reports to RICR. In addition, this paper examines recruitment, approaches to training, and reflections on the experience here in Rhode Island. In short, RICR piloted a central registry-based training program that could be worthwhile to replicate. This information may be useful to other states attempting to ease their workforce shortage.
认证肿瘤登记员(CTR)在本地和全国的短缺情况日益严重。为解决我们州的这一问题,罗德岛癌症登记处(RICR)设立了一个实习项目,希望能吸引新人投身癌症登记领域。鉴于我们对向RICR报告的每家医院和独立放射中心报告的准确性和完整性拥有无与伦比的全州视角,本文概述了RICR认为中央登记处特别适合培训新员工的原因。此外,本文还探讨了招聘、培训方法以及对罗德岛这里的经验的反思。简而言之,RICR试点了一个基于中央登记处的培训项目,该项目值得推广。这些信息可能对其他试图缓解劳动力短缺的州有用。
