Training activity information

Details

Follow the pathway of a patient undergoing a diagnostic imaging procedure, and reflect on the journey

Type

Observational training activity (OTA)

Evidence requirements

Evidence the observation or experience has been undertaken by the trainee.

Reflections on the observation or experience at two timepoints including contextualisation to the trainees own practice. E.g., for planned observations, a reflection before the observation and after, or for unplanned events a reflection one day after and another reflection a week later.

    • Patient pathways through the imaging department
    • Who creates the referral, who interacts with the patient, and who reports on images
    • Reflect on the patient experience
