This unit continues students' clinical skill development required in the practice of diagnostic radiography. In this unit students complete a series of supervised medical radiation science clinical practice placements across the year of the course. These clinical placements provide the opportunity for students to further build and develop 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 each placement and related competency tasks to successfully complete this unit.
