@MichaelRynne1 @FineFail A very cost effective start would be to train more radiation therapists. Perhaps a postgraduate Radiation therapy programme in @CancerUniGalway could be a good place to start! @ColmBurkeTD @CormacSmall @AlanCheeversFF

@mccarthymt7 Maternity leave is not back filled for Radiation Therapists either. Seems to be the case for a lot of female professions. Should be factored into workforce planning as @pnolan99 suggested.

Ongoing work in the UK with @radiotherapy_uk advocating for improved access to radiotherapy. 1 in 2 of us will experience a cancer diagnosis! Are there enough therapeutic radiographers/#Radiationtherapists being trained to meet the growing demands? @SCoRMembers @GlobalRTCo
Yesterday, I attended @radiotherapyUK, highlighting RTs life-saving potential. With 1 in 2 people experiencing cancer, expanding access to radiotherapy is crucial. It's key to tackling the cancer backlog and saving thousands of lives. #CancerCare #Radiotherapy @RTherapy4Life
