Mrs Elmarie Radov is passionate about transferring skills and knowledge in the field of nephrology. She is a registered nurse as well as a clinical technologist in the nephrology field. Mrs Radov was instrumental in setting up simulation-based training academies for National Renal Care, which increased the effectiveness of training new staff. She is also involved in the training of the third-year clinical technology students.
Mrs Radov developed and implemented an orientation program for new staff members, and developed an orientation manual for this purpose. She presented a poster at the World Congress of Nephrology at the 2015 congress. She completed the management advanced program at Wits Business School and received the top student award. Prof Radov believes not only in developing nursing skills, but also soft skills needed on how to become a better nurse/clinical technologist. She firmly believes that the development of nursing practises needs to be based on evidence, and that this will improve the quality of nursing care, and, in turn improve the quality of life of all patients we treat.
Mrs Elmarie Radov is therefore recognised for her work on : Nephrology Nursing.
