Creating person-al space for unspoken voices during diagnostic medical imaging examinations: a qualitative study.
Chandra Rekha MakanjeeAnne-Marie BerghDeon XuDrishti SarswatPublished in: BMC health services research (2021)
To add value to the quality of the service they deliver, radiography practitioners should endeavour to create a person-al space for clients. Creating these spaces is complex as patients are not in a position to judge the procedures required by technical imaging protocols and the quality control of equipment. A reflective tool is proposed for radiographers to use in discussions with their team and its leaders on improving person-centred care and the quality of services in their practice.
