Well
As the phrase goes "Time flies when your having fun" this three weeks has been an eye opener to the world of a qualified Radiographer and I want to get there more than ever.
Today has been quite sad, I feel that ive learned so much and devloped skills I did not have on going here, ive picked up positioning tips which never fail! Ive developed skills in areas I felt I was lacking on my placements because I was allowed to develop without being pushed.
This morning was quite quiet to begin with so I booked appointments for future ultrasound patients and printed off the letters to inform them of such, sound simple but its not. To do this apparently simple task there are five stages of processing in five diffent areas of CRIS, amazing how something so simple can become so time consuming, and its all done by the Radiographers there is no Admin staff in a backroom.
As the Sonographer reported on the morning pataints its the Radiographers role to report the finings into CRIS reporting, I was allowed to do this under close supervision on a few of the reports.
It was suggested thta during my third year I would like to spend some time in Ultrasound, this I hope to achieve before completion of my third year.
As for the rest of the day i stayed in general X-Ray I learnt about "Harris Lines"
these are linear markings across the bone and are indictaive of serious infections during childhood, such as whooping cough or measles. They are caused by the ceasing of bone growth as the body fights infections, when the bone starts to grwon again these line develop as a mark on the bone which remains forever. - Amazing
Anyway thats the end for me at this Hospital, even though I can not mention all the people I have worked with I just want to say THANK YOU for giving me the chance to com ehere and work with you all, and the University for giving me the chance to complete a Practice Based Module.
Thanks
