| description | Background: Improvement in professional advancement opportunities may reduce turnover and improve retention for perfusionists. However, the current literature lacks examples of professional advancement models (PAMs) for perfusionists. Methods: This review looks at examples from other healthcare fields to provide the rationale and develop a framework for such a model. Results: The review results led to the development of a point-based PAM that included four levels: perfusionist I, II, III, and IV. Each level is associated with its own point requirement, experience level, and salary increase. Points can be acquired through four defined categories. Conclusion: Perfusion programs needing professional advancement can use these results as a foundation for implementing a PAM for perfusionists. |
