Training activity: 4

Details

Follow the pathway for a patient requiring nipple prosthesis from treatment to fabrication 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.

Considerations

• Reflect on the journey, considering:
  • Patient pathway
  • How patient safety, dignity and confidentiality are maintained
  • The application of the principles of patient centered care
  • The accessibility of care
  • Individualised patient treatment
  • Patient concerns and support mechanisms
  • Materials selection and evaluation of manufacturing techniques
  • Manufacture protocols and device risk assessment
