Training activity information
Details
Shadow a Radiographer in Diagnostic Radiology and reflect on their role
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.
Considerations
- Consider adherence to local rules in practice
- Consider the operator responsibilities carried out by the Radiographer and how these relate to the Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations (IR(ME)R)
