Signature of Student Competence Evidence of attainment of competence is required for entry to the NMC register.

This mentor is required to assess and sign the record of assessment for each outcome/standard of proficiency and to indicate on the assessment form the result i.e. Progressing /Not Progressing, Pass/Fail for each competency statement. The mentor should be available for the student for at least 40% of the duration of the practice learning experience.

3 SIGNATURES AND ASSESSMENT OF PRACTICE BOOKLETS. All students intending to join the health professions must be aware of the importance of accurate record-keeping and the need for ethical conduct in connection with signatures. Please ensure that attendance and performance during a practice learning experience is confirmed in the Assessment of Practice Record by the signature of each of your mentors and by submission of the Booklet, when required, for signature by your Personal Tutor. Any difficulty in obtaining the signature of a mentor must be discussed with your UoS Tutor or personal teacher prior to the submission date. Please be aware that the forgery of a signature is a very serious disciplinary matter. It is likely to lead to the student being charged under the Discipline Regulations of the University. Because you are undertaking a programme leading to professional registration this may involve the Fitness to Practice Committee. The University Discipline Committee will take a serious view when deciding the penalty for such misconduct. The School of Nursing and Midwifery may, in addition, be obliged to advise the Nursing and Midwifery Council that a student found to have forged a signature, is not of good character. The student could then be refused registration as a nurse or midwife. WANT TO KNOW MORE?

4 INSTRUCTIONS FOR MENTORS, STUDENTS AND LECTURERS INSTRUCTIONS FOR MENTORS, STUDENTS AND LECTURERS This Practice Assessment Record contains the specific competence-based outcomes by which the student s practice is assessed. When the Mentor is satisfied that a student has achieved a specific competency statement safely, effectively and consistently to the required standard, that statement should be accredited with a PASS. If the student has not achieved the competence statement to the Mentor s satisfaction, the Mentor should mark a FAIL grade against that competency statement. If an opportunity to demonstrate the competency has not been available, simulation may be used to facilitate acquisition. Assessment of the student s level of achievement should draw on a variety of evidence : 1. Direct observation by a first level registered nurse who is eligible to have his/her name recorded on the ward/placement s Live Register of Mentors 2. Question and answer session to assess underpinning knowledge. 3. Reflective discussions between student and Mentor regarding their progress. 4. Testimony from registered nurse or other member of the multi disciplinary/ multi agency team. 5. Simulation. 6. Clinical Skills Passport A final report on the student s conduct, attitude and motivation as a potential future member of the profession must also be completed. Mentors and/or students should contact the Learning Environment Manager, UoS Tutor and/or the student s Personal Teacher for any advice and support required. The Nursing and Midwifery Council requires pre-registration students to maintain an evidence-based portfolio during clinical practice and record practice experience relevant to achievement of the EU directives. These should be used to provide supplementary evidence substantiating the claim to proficiency along with the clinical skills passport and will be reviewed by Personal Teacher at the end of Units 1, 2, 3 & 4.
