4 EVIDENCE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNUITIES Total Client Care (TCC) assessments to be completed twice during each placement. Team Assessment of Permance in Practice (TAPP) assessments are to be completed in the final two placements, if appropriate. Direct Observation of Practical Skills (DOPS) can be completed at any time in placement during year two and three and more than once as required. Witness testimony, structured reflection and documented discussion with mentor are other ms of evidence that can be completed at any point during the clinical experience (templates this evidence are contained within the student s PPDF). The Service User Evaluation (SUE) Questionnaires may also be completed if deemed appropriate. The students should discuss this with the mentor at the initial interview. Service User feedback should be obtained at least once during the year (normally x3 completed questionnaires). Service User Feedback obtained at least once during the year TAPP Assessments TAPP Assessments DOPS TCC Assessment DOPS TCC Assessment DOPS TCC Assessment PLACEMENT ONE PLACEMENT TWO PLACEMENT THREE Skills Passport* Updated Skills Passport* Safe Medicate report (mative)* Updated skills passport TAPP Report ** * Evidence from University and available at the beginning of the indicated placements ** TAPP reports will be available if and when the appropriate documentation has been completed 2

5 ASSESSMENT GUIDANCE Any individual who signs within this document must complete the verification section on page two At the start of each placement the student and mentor should carefully study the content of this practice assessment documentation. This should include a review of the students overall progress and any previous practice assessment and development plans At any point the mentor or student may contact the Practice Learning Team (GT or PPF) additional support or clarification The initial interview between mentor and student should be conducted within the first week. This interview should consider learning opportunities (including the collection of evidence), goals and. The student and mentor should agree which competencies will be targeted and these should be documented alongside a learning plan in the appropriate section A mid placement review must be conducted and documented If the student is failing to make the required progress or any other areas of concern are identified at any point during the placement, contact MUST be made with the Guidance Tutor or PPF The student must be made aware of any concerns as soon as possible Evaluation of student permance in individual competencies can take place throughout the placement. Prior to the evaluation of an individual competency the student should collect and identify relevant evidence By the end of the placement the mentor should have evaluated evidence and permance in all of the targeted competencies and document this evaluation During the final week of placement the summative assessment of the students overall permance should occur. This will involve the completion of the appropriate summative assessment m and identification of students strengths, areas development and an agreed development plan By the end of the year student ability in ALL competencies listed within this document must be evaluated. Competencies can and should be re-assessed if permance improves after assessment and in subsequent placements. Glossary of terms & evidence: PAD - Practice Assessment Document. All associated evidence should be documented within your PAD and stored within your PPDF. PPDF - Personal and Professional Development File. The PPDF is the file in which you store your record of learning, development and achievements in university and in practice.

6 PASS/FAIL CRITERIA COMPETENCY SCALE All three placements will be assessed on a pass/fail basis by the students mentor Levels of Practice Mentors should triangulate evidence from a variety of tools and sources to aid and inm the evaluation of competency and the students overall permance. The final decision to pass or fail a student remains with the students identified mentor The student may be identified as failing the following reasons: The student fails to act with professionalism, integrity and/or within recognised ethical and legal frameworks MEETS EXPECTATIONS FOR REGISTRATION Accomplished Skilled Demonstrates capability independent practice and often exceeds Demonstrates capability independent practice ACHIEVED The student is unable to practise safely or demonstrate an awareness of their own limitations The student fails to make the required progress towards the target competencies by the end of the placement/year BORDERLINE FOR REGISTRATION Supported Needs occasional direct supervision or support MINIMUM PASS LEVEL 4 The student fails to provide appropriate evidence By the end of the year the student must reach the level of SUPPORTED or above in ALL competencies contained in this document. This will indicate that the student has also met the second progression point criteria identified by the NMC (2010) Students should however attempt to ACHIEVE all competencies by reaching the level of SKILLED Competencies not achieved (i.e. below skilled) this year must be carried over and re-assessed in the final year (alongside final year competencies). It is theree good practice to re-assess any competency where the student can demonstrate improved permance in subsequent placements.
