Shadow a clinical scientist/physiologist undertaking patient facing roles in both respiratory and sleep within a clinical setting 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.

  • Prioritisation of duties
  • Relationships with service users and other professionals
  • Interpretation of results with reference to national guidance
  • The requirements to provide patient centred care
