Training activity information

Details

Attend a clinical meeting where potential new radiotherapy patients are being discussed with the multidisciplinary clinical team and reflect on the meeting

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 meeting considering:
    • The role of radiotherapy in the patient’s treatment
    • The clinical decision-making process, including patient choice and patient centered care, comorbidities and alternative treatment options
    • Roles and interaction between the multidisciplinary team
