Developing an Interim Report-Medical Dosimetry

2. Welcome and Navigation Instructions

2.1 Module Menu

Notes:

Welcome to the JRCERT module on “Developing an Interim Report” for Medical Dosimetry programs. This module is

intended to provide you with some guidance on how to develop your Interim Report and what supporting

documents you should submit. There are a couple of ways to navigate this module. You can either go through in in

order of its entirety by clicking the “Next” button, or you can visit each Standard and objective by clicking on the

appropriate tab. For those of you who want a challenge, you may jump right to the “Knowledge Check” and take a

short quiz to test your knowledge on the requirements for an Interim Report. So go ahead, pick a starting point and

have some fun!


2.2 Difference between Self-Study and Interim Report

Notes:

What is an interim report? What are the required materials to be included? Let's discuss that further. As was already

mentioned, an interim report is required by programs that have earned the maximum award of eight years. So

what are the differences between a self-study and an interim report? During a continuing accreditation self-study,

all objectives identified in the Standards must be responded to, and then an onsite evaluation team is used to

validate the information that the program has provided. In contrast, the interim report addresses only thirteen

objectives and is reviewed by professional staff prior to submission to the Board of Directors for an award decision.

Therefore, the narrative and supporting documentation must provide clear substantiation that the program has

remained in continual compliance since the previous accreditation award four years prior.

Next, if there are concerns identified at the time of the site visit, they are detailed in the Report of Findings and you

have the opportunity to respond to the objective(s) cited and provide information to document compliance.

This opportunity does not exist with the interim report. The interim report is a retrospective review of the four

years since your last onsite visit and must document compliance with the select group of objectives identified in the

interim report. It is very important that you fully address all of the areas required in the interim report for

recommendation to the Board. This module will provide guidance to assist in avoiding the most commonly

occurring mistakes.


2.3 Board decisions

Notes:

Now comes the Board decision. For a continuing accreditation self-study, the Board has several award options.

If the Board believes a program has not documented compliance with one or more objectives, it may consider

making an award of less than eight years; for example, a five-year award with a progress report due to

document compliance with the Standards. Based on the progress report, the Board may extend the award to

the maximum eight-year, maintain the current award or reduce the award.

But for an interim report, the Board has only two award options, either maintain the eight-year award based

on the program’s documentation of continued compliance, or reduce the award from eight to five years if the

program has not documented continued compliance with the Standards. For this reason, it is very important to

make sure you write a descriptive narrative that directly addresses the pertinent objectives and provide

exhibits that clearly demonstrate that the program has remained in compliance.

2.4 How would you best describe your level of knowledge in the

preparation of an interim report?

(Pick One, 0 points, 1 attempt permitted)


Choice

Expert-I have submitted interim reports that received positive accreditation awards.

Intermediate-I have been somewhat involved, but never completed an interim report

independently.

Novice-I don’t even really know what an interim report is.

Notes:

OK, so let’s see how you describe your level of expertise in the development of an interim report? Are you an expert,

have average expertise, or just learning about it? There is no correct answer but just an initial evaluation to let you

know where you should start in the module.

2.5 How to Navigate the Module-Role of JRCERT staff

Notes:

So here are a few tips for how to work through each section. It starts with a brief overview of the particular

Standard and then further information for the individual objective or objectives you will need to address in the

interim report. Then there is a question or two to check your knowledge. You may be placed in the role of a

professional staff member reviewing materials for assurance of compliance with the Standard and objective for

some of the questions.

Resources are also provided to assist you in the development of your Interim Report. A glossary is to your left if you


need to review any term. The Resources tab on the top right houses a copy of the 2014 Standards for an Accredited

Educational Program in Medical Dosimetry, the checklist for completing an Interim Report in Medical Dosimetry,

and the script for this learning module.

So click “Next” to review Standard One, or click “Main Menu” to go back and start where you prefer.

2.6 Congrats and intro slide

Notes:

Congratulations on attaining the maximum accreditation award from the Joint Review Committee on Education in

Radiologic Technology. Now that four years have passed, it is time to submit your interim report. How does the

interim report differ from the self study and what is the process? This module will provide information on the

process of developing your interim report in medical dosimetry that includes tips on getting started and

determining what exhibits could be included.

The next section provides a brief overview on the brief overview of the differences between a self-study and interim

report; what occurs after your submission; and some tips for getting started.


1. Standard One

1.1 Standard One Integrity Title SLide

Notes:

Standard One states, “The program demonstrates integrity in the following: representations to communities of

interest and the public, pursuit of fair and equitable academic practices, and treatment of, and respect for, students,

faculty, and staff. “ In Standard One, the Interim Report requires the program to address Standard One, Objective

1.10.


1.2 Standard One Objective 1.10 Definition

Notes:

Standard One, Objective 1.10 states “Makes the program’s mission statement, goals, and student learning

outcomes readily available to students, faculty, administrators, and the general public.” To fulfill this requirement,

you must describe how the program makes its mission statement, goals, and student learning outcomes available

to multiple groups that include students, faculty, administrators, and the general public.

Additionally, the program must upload a copy of a publication that contains the program’s mission statement, goals,

and student learning outcomes. This could be a variety of exhibits. You could submit a copy of your website where

all these are located. You could also provide the pages from your student handbook that are located on the

program website. With technological advances, it is important that multiple communities of interest have easy

access to these items.

4. Standard Four

4.1 Standard Four Description

Notes:

The promotion of health, safety, and optimal use of radiation for students, patients, and the general public are the

premise of Standard Four. Some of the areas to be addressed include safety with radiation and magnetic

resonance, and supervision policies. Let’s look at each of the specific objectives you are required to respond to in

your Interim Report.


4.2 Standard Four, Objective 4.1

Notes:

Standard Four, Objective 4.1 assures the safety of students through the implementation of published policies and

procedures that are in compliance with Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulations and state laws, as applicable.

This objective requires you to describe how your policies and radiation exposure data are made known to your

enrolled students.

You will need to upload a copy of appropriate radiation exposure policies as well as a copy of one radiation

exposure report.



Notes:

The next objective to address in Standard Four is Objective 4.3, which assures that students employ program

radiation safety practices. For your Interim Report, you need to describe how the curricular sequence and content

prepares students for safe radiation practices. This includes how you prepare students for safe practices in

magnetic resonance imaging.

There are multiple items you will need to upload. They include the program’s curricular sequence, policies and/or

procedures regarding radiation safety and protection, and appropriate use of the program’s energized laboratory, if

it is applicable, and the tool used for the students in magnetic resonance screening.



Notes:

For Standard Four, Objective 4.3, it is important to note the documentation needed for MR safety. You need to

upload not only the tool used for screening students, but include documentation that screening and education for

MR safety are being completed prior to the students entering the clinical component of the program.



Notes:

Standard Four, Objectives 4.4 and 4.5 address the area of student supervision in the clinical settings. Because the

interim report is a retrospective review of the program, it is important to note that you are required to submit

documentation for these three objectives that is a representative sampling, from each year since the program’s

last accreditation award.

Standard Four, Objective 4.4 assures that all medical dosimetry calculations and treatment plans are approved by a

credentialed practitioner prior to implementation. You are required to describe how the direct supervision

requirement is enforced and monitored in the clinical setting. You also need to submit documentation that the

direct supervision requirements are made known to students, clinical preceptors, and clinical staff. There are a

variety of ways to capture this documentation and examples may include meeting minutes, memos distributed to

the appropriate parties, or sign-off sheets. You need to submit documentation that is a representative sampling,

from each year since the program’s last accreditation award, that provides assurance that students, clinical

instructors, and clinical staff are apprised of the approval policy.


Notes:

Standard Four, Objective 4.5 then assures that direct patient contact procedures (e.g., simulation, fabrication of

immobilization devices, etc.) are performed under the direct supervision of a credentialed practitioner. You will

need to describe how the direct supervision requirement is enforced and monitored in the clinical setting as well

as submitting documentation that the direct supervision requirements are made known to students, clinical

preceptors, and clinical staff. Again, you will need to submit a representative sample for EACH YEAR from your last

accreditation award that documents students, clinical preceptors, and clinical staff are apprised of the indirect

supervision policy.


4.7 Standard Four, Obj 4.4 quiz


Correct Choice

A copy of the agenda from new student orientation that shows where you discuss

student supervision policies

X Sign in sheets and agendas from the annual professional development activities

for all clinical staff where case studies addressing student supervision was the

topic

X Minutes from the clinical preceptors’ meetings for the last four years where the

topic of student supervision was reiterated

Providing the clinical staff with the student handbook (which includes the

supervision policies) annually


That's right! These documents would provide evidence that the supervision policy was shared

with students, clinical preceptors and clinical staff. Great job!


Notes:

Standard Four, Objective 4.4 addresses direct supervision for students until they have achieved competency. What

documentation could be submitted that adequately demonstrates how you make this policy known to students,

clinical instructors and clinical staff? Select all that may apply.




4.8 Standard Four, Objective 4.6 quiz

(Pick Many, 0 points, 1 attempt permitted)

Correct Choice

X Minutes from your Advisory Committee meetings for the last four years because


supervision is a standing agenda item.

X Having credentialed preceptors sign off annually that they are following the policy

Trust that the students are following the policy since they signed off on the

student program handbook

X Program faculty periodically attending the clinical settings and observing the

students and clinical staff


That's right! Standard Four, Objective 4.5 assures that students are performing any direct

patient contact care procedure under direct supervision. You need more than just trust to

assure compliance.

Feedback when incorrect:

This is not the best choice. Try again! Remember you need to assure your students are

completing all direct patient contact care procedures under direct supervision and just saying

you trust the students is not sufficient.

Notes:

Standard Four, Objective 4.6 covers the topic of students needing direct supervision when an image is required to

be repeated. What can be acceptable mechanisms for assuring that this policy is being enforced in the clinical

setting? Select all that may apply.

5. Standard Five

5.1 Standard Five Description

Notes:

Standard Five addresses assessment at the program level. How do you know your students are learning? Are there

areas for improvement? These questions and others are often considered when discussing assessing your students


and program. Let’s take a look at the specific objectives to be covered for Standard Five.

5.2 Standard Five, Objective 5.1

Notes:

Standard Five, Objective 5.1 assures the program has developed an assessment plan that, at a minimum, measures

the program’s student learning outcomes in relation to the following goals:

clinical competence

critical thinking

professionalism

and communication skills.

For this objective, you will need to upload a copy of your most recent assessment plan. Make sure your plan

includes the following items:

The previously identified goals, the associated student learning outcomes, measurement tools, benchmarks,

time frames, and the person responsible for the data collection.



Notes:

Standard Five, Objective 5.4 covers analysis and sharing of your student learning outcome and program

effectiveness data to foster continuous program improvement. This specific objective asks you to describe how the

program analyzes data collected from both student learning outcomes and program effectiveness in order to

identify areas for program improvement. Are the students applying radiation protection practices more effectively

their first year as compared to their graduating year? Are the employers satisfied with the graduates’ level of

professionalism? These are just a couple of questions you could pose when performing analysis of student learning

and program effectiveness. When writing your narrative, make sure to describe examples of changes that have

resulted from the analysis of both student learning outcome and program effectiveness data. Additionally, you need

to discuss how these changes have led to program improvement.

Secondly, you need to describe how the program shares its student learning outcome and program effectiveness

data with its communities of interest. It is fairly common to discuss credentialing examination pass rates or job

placement rates with your advisory committee, but remember you also need to share your student learning

outcome data analysis as well.

For assurance you need to upload a copy of the program’s actual student learning outcome and program

effectiveness data since the last accreditation award (usually four cycles of assessment). This data may be

documented on previous assessment plans or on a separate document. Additionally, you need to provide

documentation that student learning outcome and program effectiveness data has been shared with your

communities of interest. Finally, you need to upload copies of representative samples of the measurement tools

identified in the assessment plan.



Notes:

Program improvement is paramount to student success, and one way to accomplish this is systemic review of not

only the assessment data, but the assessment plan itself. A well designed assessment plan will yield the best data

results to assist in program improvement and ultimately student success. This is assured through Standard Five,

Objective 5.5 which requires programs to periodically evaluate its assessment plan to assure continuous program

improvement.

For this objective, you will need to describe how the evaluation of the assessment plan takes place. Questions that

could be addressed may include "Are the benchmarks high enough?" "Do the measurement tools effectively capture

the data that accurately reflects levels of student learning?"

Additionally, you are required to upload documentation that the assessment plan has been evaluated at least once

every two years. Typically, meeting minutes document this process.

5.5 Standard Five, Obj 5.4 question



Correct Choice

X A comparison of the clinical communication data results from the traditional

student cohort and the online student cohort

X An action plan developed to improve an unmet benchmark

X Review of curricular sequencing because students are not meeting the SLO,

“Students will apply radiation safety practices in the clinical setting”

X Positive comments from the graduate and employer surveys


That's right! These demonstrate analysis of the data as well as sharing of the analysis with your

communities of interest. Good job!


You haven’t selected all the correct answers. Review each choice again to see which ones

demonstrate analysis and sharing of your student learning and program effectiveness data.


Notes:

Standard Five, Objective 5.4 discusses analysis and sharing of your assessment data. What could be items to

include in your advisory committee meeting minutes? Click on all the choices that apply.






Correct Choice

Assessment plans are required to be reviewed and revised annually.

X Trend analysis on your assessment plan could lead you to increase a benchmark.

X Assessment plans are required to be evaluated at least every two years.

X Evaluation of the assessment plan could yield no changes.


That's right! Assessment plans need to be evaluated at a minimum every two years. Trend data

could lead changes in benchmarks or changes in the tool used to measure the SLO. Finally, if a

plan has been recently revised, two years may be too soon to make any changes.


This is not the best choice. How often does your assessment plan itself need to be evaluated?


Notes:

Select the choices that are true regarding Standard Five, Objective 5.5 and evaluation of your assessment plan.






Correct Choice

X Goals assessing learning outcomes of clinical competency, critical thinking,

professionalism, and communication

X Specific tools used to collect the data

X Time frame for data collection

maintain specialized accreditation. This Standard requires submission of documentation of accreditation or

compliance with regulations. Let’s look at the objectives in which you are required to respond for your Interim

Report.


6.2 Standard Six, Objective 6.1

Notes:

Standard Six, Objective 6.1 documents the continuing institutional accreditation of the sponsoring institution. If

your sponsoring institution is a college or university, the institutional or regional accreditor may include agencies

such as the Higher Learning Commission or the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. If your sponsoring

institution is a hospital or medical center, the accreditor may be The Joint Commission.

For this objective, you must provide documentation of current institutional accreditation for your sponsoring

institution. This may be a copy of the award letter, certificate, or printout of the institutional accreditor’s Web page.


6.3 Standard Six, Objective 6.4

Notes:

Now for the final objective, Standard Six, objective 6.5. The program documents that its clinical settings are in

compliance with applicable state and/or federal radiation safety laws. Compliance with applicable laws promotes a

safe environment for students and others and records of compliance must be maintained for each clinical setting.

Clinical settings may be recognized by The Joint Commission, DNV Healthcare, Inc., Healthcare Facilities

Accreditation Program, an equivalent agency, or a state-issued license.

To document compliance with Standard Six, objective 6.5, you should provide letters, certificates, or printouts of

Web pages demonstrating the current recognition status of each clinical setting. For those health care centers,

clinics, or facilities that may be owned or operated by a larger corporation, you will want to clearly identify each

facility that is recognized. Often it is difficult for us to cross reference the names and addresses that are located on

the program's database listing compared to those that are contained on The Joint Commission's Quality Report.

California Programs could also submit a copy of a current and valid Radiation Machine Tube Registration for

supporting documentation.
