Question 25309 — health professions

Summary

Mr. Jean-Paul Lecoq alerts the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the situation of radiology technicians, particularly within the Le Havre Hospital Group. These professionals talk about a job that fascinates them, yet they are unfortunately worn out very quickly by the ever-increasing tasks that fall to them, despite recognition and sufficient staff. Despite their daily efforts, they appear forgotten by the 2022 Health Plan and more generally by hospitals. Their hospital colleagues often know nothing about their training, diplomas, skills and even the missions of this medical profession. BAC+3 graduates, in a complex and selective sector, they have the feeling of being excluded from any salary development. However, their profession evolves every day. Indeed, manipulators work on machines and protocols in constant mutation with nuclear medicine and radiotherapy. Their technical expertise is a real asset, yet the public hospital sometimes employs them for up to two years on fixed-term contracts; the salary of a radiology technician with 17 years of seniority is 1,710 euros. The risks incurred by this profession are absolutely not recognized either. Today, 65 radiology technicians work at the Le Havre Hospital Group and receive 80% of emergency patients. Without imaging, any hospital cannot function, because it is an integral part of the diagnosis for more than half of the care provided. These agents whose efforts are daily, always at the service of users, patients, having a sense of public service at heart, working in a profession cruelly lacking in legislation to protect them, are demanding a revaluation legitimate salary of 300 euros minimum monthly and additional specialized staff. Forgotten about the individual risk premium for the benefit of emergency professionals, these staff feel disrespected and the 2022 Health Plan only makes things worse with state-certified nurses who could prescribe X-rays in the emergency room, thus denying all the specificity of the manipulator profession. This situation, unworthy of French health service, raises fears for patient care and the health of agents. There is therefore an urgent need to provide the hospital with a sufficient number of qualified radiology technicians whose training will be regularly renewed. He asks her what her position is on this issue.
