MEDI12011 - Medical Imaging Clinical Experience 1

General Information

Unit Synopsis

This is the first of four work integrated learning placements in your course. This enables you to apply the knowledge, skills and behaviours that you will have developed in the pre-clinical simulation environment in prerequisite units. You will be placed at a clinical diagnostic imaging facility for eight weeks of fulltime clinical experience. You will work under the guidance and mentorship of clinical radiographers to perform radiography in a professional and effective manner and become a useful member of the imaging team. Your performance focus will be on general radiography examinations of non-complex patients. You will undergo assessments of your clinical performance of imaging examinations previously learned in the academic environment. You will also be assessed on your professional behaviours and attributes. You will apply reflective practice to support your skill development.
