The Radiology Department at Southcoast Hospitals planned a fun-filled week of activities for NRTW as is done annually. Weeks in advance, the NRTW Committee members gathered to plan activities which would include all department personnel in the three hospitals and numerous outreach settings. Games and contests were devised to challenge the technologists’ knowledge of trivia, currents events, and clinical information. The annual “Buzz Bowl” competition took place in which teams of four individuals matched wits to win prizes—and bragging rights—in a “Jeopardy”-like game format. The “Duck Pond QaPI Contest” teamed individual technologists from several modalities to answer challenging questions related to Quality Assessment Performance Improvement Standards. Making it fun were the little rubber duckies in a blue duck pond that bore the questions to be answered. Sundaes and sub sandwiches were enjoyed by the technologists, and a special luncheon was provided by our radiologists, and, yes, we had desserts. What is NRTW without dessert? Another annual theme of NRTW at South coast is community service. This year, each hospital and its surrounding outreach offices collected nonperishable food items and clothing for local homeless shelters. We also began out annual collection to provide several Thanksgiving baskets for local families.
