About the OARM

 

The Ontario Association of Radiology Managers was established in response to the need for an educational and communication forum for Managers in Imaging Departments throughout the province of Ontario.

In the early 1980’s a small group of dedicated radiology managers from across the province laid the ground work for the formation of the OARM.

The OARM came to be in 1983 with a charter membership of 75 people, having representation from all disciplines. In 1986 the Association was incorporated, and today the OARM is proud to claim a membership of over 160. Our membership consists of these incredible Imaging Leadership roles; Directors, Managers, Team Leads, Charge Technologists, Supervisors and Professional Associates.

Membership options include:

ACTIVE – open to those responsible for the management of Diagnostic Imaging departments or sub-sections such as Radiology, Nuclear Medicine, Radiation Therapy, Ultrasound, Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

ASSOCIATE – for those who are not eligible to be Active members but who could contribute to the aims of the Association.

HONOURED – a lifetime recognition of a superior contribution to the Association.

RETIRED – persons who have retired from active practice and who held another classification of membership immediately prior to retirement.

STUDENT – persons who are interested in expanding their professional learning through the OARM mentorship program. This is not a permanent membership and exists to help increase Imaging Leadership knowledge within the profession of Imaging Services.

NON-PRACTICING – for members who lose their positions without alternate employment. Whereas these members do not meet the present criteria for membership, but they wish to remain members of the association.

We would love to have you be a part of our effective leadership and collaborative sharing. Select the link below and begin your journey with the OARM today!
