3 hours Practical, general workplace training supported by an individualized learning plan developed by the employer, college, and student. A health practicum will be an unpaid learning experience. Introduces the day shift clinical environment at a JRCERT recognized clinical facility. Requires rotating through different work areas. Competencies include: production of standard radiographic images of the chest, abdomen and upper and lower extremities, bony thorax and spine and radiographic procedures requiring the administration of contrast media (re: UGI, LGI, excretory urography, etc.) with direct supervision (pre-competency) and with indirect supervision (post-competency); radiographic image evaluation regarding anatomy, positioning and technical factors; reading, understanding and demonstrating understanding of positioning materials by selecting necessary equipment when producing standard radiographic images on patients. (SCANS 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11) Prerequisite: RADR 1266. Corequisites: RADR 1313, RADR 2305, and RADR 2431.
