Bridging theory and practice: Experiences of diagnostic radiography students during clinical training in resource‐constrained settings

Abstract

Despite significant challenges, diagnostic radiography students demonstrated remarkable resilience and commitment to patient care. However, resource limitations and interprofessional issues pose substantial barriers to optimal learning experiences. These findings highlighted the need for targeted interventions in diagnostic radiography education within resource-constrained settings, including increased investment in equipment and staffing, enhanced interprofessional education, improved supervision models and curriculum enhancements fostering self-directed learning and resilience.
