  • RAD 204: Clinical Edu IV

    3.00 Credits
    Harcum College

    Content and clinical practice experiences are designed for sequential development, application, critical analysis, integration, synthesis and evaluation of concepts and theories in the performance of radiologic procedures. Through structured sequential, competency-based assignments in a clinical setting, concepts of team practice, patient-centered clinical practice and professional development are discussed, examined and evaluated. Clinical practice experiences are designed to provide patient care and assessment, competent performance of radiologic imaging and total quality management. Levels of competency and outcomes measurement ensure the well-being of the patient preparatory to, during and following the radiographic procedure. As the students achieve competency, they begin performing more studies under indirect supervision. Prerequisite: RAD 108.
