Advanced Practice and Leadership in Radiology Nursing

Abstract

This chapter presents perspectives on the potential strengths of the child or young person undergoing an imaging procedure and ways to engage their competence and capacity through welcoming relationships, inviting collaboration, and recognizing success. Our view of a child or young person as competent and capable reflects the level of social agency we attribute to individuals, the level of participation we are willing to offer, and ultimately our propensity to collaborate with children and young people in the radiology environment.
