Advanced Clinical Education V

6 credits · Undergraduate

(Apprenticeship/Internship/Practicum with variable meeting hours) The student continues to apply concepts of radiation therapy, in planning and delivery of care to cancer patients and their families, during the time in which the patient is undergoing treatment. The level of clinical responsibilities and complexity is increased from Clinical Education IV as the student performs competencies under the supervision of a registered radiation therapist (R.T.T.). The clinical practice outcomes of this course correlate with the entry-level professional responsibilities of an RTT in the domains of cognitive, psychomotor, and affective skills. Students are required to attend at the Western Manitoba Cancer Centre in Brandon for a minimum 2 week rotation. Requisite Courses: Admission to the Radiation Therapy Program, CCMB-3934 [prerequisite(s)]; CCMB-4902 (must be taken concurrently).
