This unit continues students' clinical skill development required in the safe practice of diagnostic radiography. In this unit students complete a supervised medical radiation science clinical practice placement. The clinical placement provides the opportunity for students to further build and develop safe clinical skills in a supervised environment. In this unit students will also continue to further develop critical evaluation and reflective practice skills. Students are required to pass the placement and related competency tasks to successfully complete this unit.
