Course Summary

Experience in clinical departments is vital to developing clinical capability. This course provides you with this opportunity and the tools to maximise your clinical learning whilst on placement. This course builds on Radiotherapy 3 and Radiotherapy Practice 3. After completion of this course you should be able to complete routine procedures to a professional standard with minimal supervision and assist with specialised procedures. You should have a clinical learning record showing significant progression and a clear plan for your future personal and professional development.
This course involves clinical placement and there may be associated travel requirements. This Work Integrated Learning (WIL) experience will develop your knowledge and skills in the clinical setting.
During this work integrated learning experience your knowledge and skills will be applied and assessed in a real or simulated workplace context and where feedback from industry and/ or community is integral to your experience.
You must meet several pre-clinical placement requirements during your studies in the Medical Radiations program and before attempting this WIL course, including a Working With Children Check, a Criminal Record Check, first aid, manual handling training, and other requirements. All arrangements for, and costs associated with, these requirements are your responsibility. Please visit the WIL Canvas site for further information
If you have a long-term medical condition and/or disability you should contact the Program Coordinator or the Equitable Learning Services for further advice. Students need to be able to meet the inherent requirements of the program. At any time prior to or during your placement if there are concerns raised related to your fitness to practice the clinical coordinator can request that you gain full medical clearance to continue your placement.
