Baptist Health College Little Rock School of Radiography Graduates Accomplish 100% Board Pass Rate
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Baptist Health College Little Rock (BHCLR) School of Radiography graduates recently passed their national certification exam administered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologist (ARRT) with a 100% pass rate. The graduating class of 15 students passed their exam on the first attempt.
The ARRT certification examination recognizes practitioners who are qualified to perform the role of a radiographer. Passing this certification is required for professionals in medical imaging. These graduates may also work in advanced modalities within a radiology department, such as computed tomography (CT), interventional radiology (IR), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), mammography, etc. Employers, state licensing agencies and federal regulators require an ARRT credential to prove professionals have met rigorous standards and are committed to providing high-quality patient care.
Suzy Bullard, MHA, RT(R) (ARRT), School of Radiography associate dean, along with assistant professors Suzanna Haskin, MBA, RT(R), and Heather Cain, BS, RT(R), are proud of their graduates and are excited to see them excel in their chosen field.
“Watching our students pass their certification exams is one of the most rewarding parts of this job. It’s a reflection of their hard work, resilience and commitment to excellence in patient care – and we could not be more proud of them,” Bullard said.
Of this year’s graduating class, nine students will be working at Baptist Health facilities in central Arkansas, and others will be serving in the state and throughout the country.
“Our students are going into the field ready to provide high-quality care because they received the highest standard of education and training during their time in our radiography program. They are prepared for a successful career in radiologic technology,” Bullard said.
BHCLR graduates are joining more than 4,100 registered technologists with ARRT credentials in the state. For more information about BHCLR’s radiography program, contact Suzy Bullard at suzy.bullard@baptist-health.org.
