This module further develops to deliver a greater appreciation of the complexity of healthcare considerations and the governance strategise and frameworks which support best outcomes. Students will further develop their understanding by reviewing patient feedback, external reports on healthcare services and evaluating how their own personal practice can help to shape future organisations. Students will be able to apply their knowledge and skills within a multi-professional setting, presenting best practice specific to their profession. They will be able to begin to analyse their impact within team settings and on improvements and changes with the service user at the centre of their practice.
Aims
An overall aim to further develop the student's understanding of the critical importance of communication and teamwork in the safe and effective delivery of health care. A focus on the impact on radiology services will be maintained through teaching. Inter-disciplinary care delivery problems that have compromised patient safety and experience will be explored throughout, outlining the root cause analysis team approach required in assessment 1 of this module. This involves analysis of a scenario from a practice experience episode, requiring inter-disciplinary actions and resolution/s optimising care delivery options. Honest an open reflection skills will be showcased. The ability of radiography students to professionally promote the value of radiology, and education other healthcare professionals will be a key objective of this module. The I.P.E 2 event provides a formal interdisciplinary platform to practice such skills.

Teaching hours in detail~Synchronous directed lectures~ 14 hrs Synchronous directed workshops~ 10 hrs Workshops are: (Root cause analysis, stress management, conflict resolution, I.P.E 2) Asynchronous directed ~ 1 hr 69 hrs ~ clinical practice 106 independent study hrs made up of the following~ Directed self study lecture pre-reads ~ 19 hrs Micro-lecture reviews ~ 8 x 15 mins ~ 2 hrs Essay plan formative submission prep~ 2 hrs Online E learning for health modules~ 7 hrs Self directed study ~ 76Module content will be delivered using a blended learning approach. Inter-professional education (I.P.E) forms a strong theme within this module with a formal workshop event incorporated. A variety of professions will be represented in each seminar group. Students are expected to undertake both directed and self-directed learning. It is anticipated that guided independent study hours will include approximately 69 hours of practice experience. This is derived from a total of 413 hours, averaged across all six assessed modules in year 2.
Description of Module Assessment
1: Reflective Analysis weighted 100%A critical reflectionA 2,000 word individual student reflective analysis to assess each student's ability to evaluate roles and contribution to the inter-professional team. Students will be given a scenario from a practice experience environment and use this as an example to work through a "root cause analysis" using a framework recommended by the NHS National Patient Safety Agency. Students will analyse the negotiated process of decision-making required with other members of the inter-professional team (with the aim of optimising the service user¿s/carer¿s experience).
2: Practice Based Assessment weighted 0%Portfolio A: Professional CompetencyAssesses those aspects of student competency mapped against the intended learning outcomes of this module: with reference to assessment of overall professional competencies undertaken during Practice Experience.
3: Practice Based Assessment weighted 0%Portfolio B: Radiographic CompetencyAssesses those aspects of student competency mapped against the intended learning outcomes of this module: with reference to assessment of specific radiographic practice competencies undertaken during Practice Experience.
4: Practice Based Assessment weighted 0%Portfolio C: Clinical Assessment CompetencyAssesses those aspects of student competency mapped against the intended learning outcomes of this module: with reference to the six mandatory clinical assessments undertaken (twice) during Practice Experience. Year 2 competencies: shoulder, pelvis/hips, cervical spine, lumbar spine, abdomen & mobile.
5: Practice Based Assessment weighted 0%Portfolio D: Placement ReflectionA personal reflection where each student is able to demonstrate an accurate and honest reflection of practical skill ability and theoretical knowledge base. The student will present specific examples from their clinical experience to showcase development. The student will utilise an appropriate reflective model which will support future actions which will develop personal and professional practice.
6: Oral Exam weighted 0%Portfolio E: Oral Examination 40 minsAssesses those aspects of student knowledge and application mapped against the intended learning outcomes of this module: with reference to abdomen, simple trauma (appendicular including shoulder & hips) and mobile imaging undertaken by the student during Practice Experience.
