NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR ASSOCIATION OF MEDICAL RADIATION TECHNOLOGISTS

ROY CROWLEY MEMORIAL AWARD

This award was instituted to commemorate the dedicated service of Roy Crowley, a technologist engaged in the art and science of Medical Radiography for approximately 22 years. Roy was employed in many capacities as an MRT, spending most of his professional career affiliated with the Janeway Child Health Center. He held many positions as a technologist, but the one he loved the most was that of clinical instructor. Roy was much loved and respected by his colleagues, but especially by his students. Roy passed away suddenly in May 1983 at the age of 47, still wearing his pager.

This award was initiated by his family, and is currently funded by the NLAMRT. The award is given annually to the student who demonstrates clinical excellence throughout the third year. The recipient of this award is decided by the clinical instructors, with input solicited from fellow technologists. This award consists of a $200 cheque, and an individual plaque donated by the clinical instructors. There is also a perpetual plaque, which is kept on display at the school.

The Roy Crowley Memorial Award is the oldest, and deemed by many to be the most prestigious award given to a graduate of the Medical Radiography program.
