World Radiography Day (WRD) marks the anniversary of the discovery of the X-ray by German physicist Wilhelm R\u00f6ntgen in 1895. Encompassing WRD during NRRTW signifies the significance of the X-ray in diagnosing, monitoring, and the treatment of medical conditions.<\/p>\n
The 2023 theme for ASMIRT\u2019s NRRTW is Focused on Person Centred Care. <\/em>Encompassing both patients and practitioners, PCC has been a reoccurring theme amongst our members and the Society for some time. For those of you that joined us at our annual conference, you may recall Dr Ben Bravery\u2019s moving keynote reflecting on his experience as a cancer patient. While reciting the challenging process of getting diagnosed and treated, Ben reminded us \u201cyour normal is your patient\u2019s abnormal\u201d. <\/em>ASMIRT have also dedicated several events to highlighting how we can care for, and communicate with, diverse communities by considering cultural sensitivities, neurodivergence and the queer experience. Perhaps most notably, NRRTW is a chance to reflect on our own wellbeing as medical radiation professionals. It is paramount we care for ourselves to be able to deliver quality care for our patients.<\/p>\n NRRTW places a spotlight on the invaluable service we perform in the allied health sector. We are all ambassadors for our profession \u2013 embrace the occasion! Recognise the person centred care currently being enacted in your hospital\/clinic and department and consider how this can be expanded upon. Check in with colleagues and peers and share useful tools for creating a caring environment and caring for oneself.<\/p>\n During the week, we encourage you to use the free resources provided by ASMIRT. You can choose from a range of materials, including educational posters, information flyers, multipurpose stickers, and a range of digital artworks for you to use on your websites, across your eDMs, and social media. We encourage you to tag @asmirtorg in your posts to help spread the word about the significance of medical radiation professionals.<\/p>\n I look forward to seeing your photos, posts and reading your stories during #NRRTW.<\/p>\n Carolyn Heyes<\/p>\n ASMIRT President[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_override=”ex-full” type=”vc_default” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1693191517754{padding-top: 70px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1490364209546{padding-bottom: 80px !important;}”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n 6 November \u2013 12 November 2023<\/p>\n World Radiography Day \u2013 Wednesday 8 November 2023<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n We invite you to post images of your NRRTW celebration, your decorated rooms, and whatever else you come up with.<\/p>\n #LookingToTheFuture of medical radiation science for the benefit of all our patients #WorldRadiographyDay #Radiography #RadiationTherapy #NucMed #MedRad #Mammography #Sonography #Ultrasound @ASMIRTorg @ISRRTwww.asmirt.org\/nrrtw2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” type=”vc_default” margin_top=”-6″ margin_bottom=”24″ css=”.vc_custom_1627282152670{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1693191652370{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]National Radiographers and Radiation Therapists\u2019 Week (NRRTW) is about celebrating you and your vital role in health care.
