Training activity information

Details

Follow the patient treatment pathway from immobilisation, planning scan(s), planning and treatment for at least two different treatment modalities and reflect on the journeys

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:
    • Role of radiotherapy physicist at each step of the pathway
    • Reason for referral
    • Reflect on the patient experience through their treatment journey
