1 WARD 8 WANSBECK GENERAL HOSPITAL PROFILE OF LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES. Link Mentor: Trudy Parkin Review date: May 2010

2 GUIDANCE FOR PRACTICE PLACEMENT EDUCATORS AND STUDENTS. This profile of learning opportunities is a document that details learning opportunity within your placement. This file is a growing and dynamic document, with staff and students being responsible for keeping it updated and relevant for their clinical area. It is intended that practice placement educators and students utilise this resource to select appropriate learning opportunities to help students meet their specified competencies. It is expected that students will use this file as a resource and be proactive in identifying their learning needs. Many of these learning opportunities will take place with a variety of professionals including other allied health professionals, district nurses, health visitors, public health nurses, specialist nurses and practice nurses. This resource gives an overview of the inter agency and multi professional contacts which students may encounter during their placement, however not all of these opportunities will be accessible. On the first day of practice placement within primary care, the student must have an induction into their practice area. Please ensure that the induction checklist is completed and retained in this portfolio. Following placements, student evaluation forms should be retained in the practice area. These should be used to reinforce good practice placement education and developmental opportunities. Please retain student evaluations (with students permission) in this portfolio for audit purposes. 2
