School Mission: (10 June 2008)
Our hospital-based School of Radiologic Technology is a major component of the San Joaquin General Hospital and the Hospital Diagnostic Imaging Department. As such we share their values, dedication, and commitment to providing the highest quality health care, education, and training. Our educational program remains community-oriented, culturally sensitive, and highly affordable.
We are committed to the community, to the student, and to the potential radiographer. We will provide the preparation to allow students to become entry-level professionals in the field. We will provide the community with well-educated, fully competent, highly motivated medical imaging professionals. We will further attempt to instill the desire for continued professional growth and lifelong learning, the ability to work within a team environment, and the tools with which to venture beyond and chose to become dynamic members of the team or leaders in the field of medical imaging.
We will strive to develop professionals by fostering an environment of academic and clinical excellence and diversity. To facilitate a continued development of personal and professional goals we believe that the student must build upon a broad academic foundation of knowledge, skills, and abilities. Foremost we will foster a global knowledge base and promote the development of strong communication skills, creativity, self-direction, critical thinking, and commitment to life-long learning. Beyond this we will provide students with the technical education to safely and competently perform radiologic procedures and respond to the needs of patients with competence and compassion.
In fulfillment of our mission we nurture strong affiliations with the local San Joaquin Delta Community College as a source for all non-major supplementary and supporting coursework and with Clinical facilities housing state of the art modalities, digital imaging, and PACS.
