Are you ready to join us?
We are excited to learn more about you and your experience. As part of the application process, we invite you to respond to the following targeted questions:
Can you describe your experience in breast imaging, particularly in screening and diagnostic breast ultrasound and mammography? Please provide an example of a complex or challenging case you have encountered, explain your role in the assessment and imaging process, how you worked with the multidisciplinary team, and how you ensured the appropriate quality and accuracy of the imaging.
Medical imaging environments involve a range of work health and safety risks, including radiation exposure, manual handling, infection control, equipment hazards and interactions with patients. Can you provide an example of a WHS risk or incident you have identified in a medical imaging setting? What action did you take, who did you involve, and what was the outcome? How do you ensure your day-to-day practice remains consistent with relevant WHS legislation and organisational policies?
This position requires excellent communication, organisation and time-management skills, particularly when managing competing clinical priorities and patients who may be anxious or distressed. Tell us about a time when you had a particularly demanding workload involving multiple patients, urgent examinations or competing priorities. How did you prioritise your workload, communicate with patients and colleagues, maintain accurate documentation/PACS processes, and ensure that the quality and safety of patient care were not compromised?
