Training activity: 2

Details

Shadow a Clinical Scientist in Neurophysiology 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

• Reflect on their role, considering:
  • Range of neurophysiological investigations performed by Clinical Scientists
  • Autonomy and accountability of the Clinical Scientist
  • Reporting responsibilities
  • Patient communication
  • Interaction with other healthcare professionals
  • Breadth of responsibilities and roles in the department
  • Application of the principles of patient centred care
