However, there is a lack of literature and guidelines to support radiographers who provide practice-based learning to radiography students with learning difficulties and disabilities during clinical practice. The purpose of this article is to bring about awareness and provide information and guidance to clinical supervisors of radiography students on how to support learners with learning difficulties and disabilities. This information will also be useful to other healthcare professionals, such as nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, and medical doctors who facilitate practice-based learning for healthcare students in the clinical environments.</abstract></article-meta></front><body /><back /></article>
