1.00 Credits
The first clinical Education course is designed to incorporate orientation to patient care skills, ethics, and an introduction to Radiologic Science as an allied health profession. During the initial three weeks, orientation topics are presented on campus; concurrently, introduction to positioning and radiographic terminology is covered in Radiographic Procedures I. Following this, the student is assigned to a designated clinical agency where the student is expected to transition from observation to active participation under the direct supervision of clinical preceptors. Following laboratory simulation, (in Radiographic Procedures I) and clinical practice, the student requests competency evaluation during which the student will demonstrate skill and competency level performing radiographic procedures. Minimum competency requirements are listed in the course syllabus. Sixteen hours per week. Prerequisite: Admission to program and eligibility for clinical placement. Corequisites: RADS 102, RADS 104/104/L, 106/106L.
-
1.00 Credits
Observation, participation, and performance at assigned clinical site supervised by clinical preceptors. Minimum competency requirements are listed in the course syllabus. Sixteen hours per week. Prerequisite: RADS 120. Corequisites: RADS 108/108L, RADS 204/204L, RADS 215.
-
2.00 Credits
Rotation to new clinical site affords opportunities for students to perfect competency skills demonstrated previously and develop additional competency skills completing new procedures. Concurrent classroom and laboratory instruction including cranium and facial bones, trauma and mobile radiography. Participation and performance applying radiographic and patient care principles with appropriate supervision by clinical preceptors. Minimum competency requirements are listed in the course syllabus. Twenty-four hours per week. Prerequisite: RADS 122. Corequisite: RADS 114/114L.
-
