Responsibilities

As a Radiographer in the New Zealand Army you will function and interface with multidisciplinary medical personnel in both civilian‑based hospital and military field hospital environments. You will work as part of the Diagnostic Section within a miniature surgical facility, functioning and interacting with a small multi‑skilled, emergency‑focussed team specifically prepared to work in mobile tented surgical scenarios or on board the surgical facility on the ship HMNZS CANTERBURY, often in austere and hostile environments, under military operational conditions. The NZ Army primarily only requires plain film diagnostic imaging. However, from time to time the Army will require advice from other radiographic specialties. Therefore it is essential that the Radiographer Officer maintains their own clinical competency and professional relationships with external agencies to provide safe, best‑practice within this environment.
