Role of the TAFE NSW Facilitator The TAFE NSW Facilitator will meet with you during professional experience placement. The role of the TAFE NSW Facilitator is to liaise with health facility staff and assist you to achieve the most from your professional experience. The TAFE NSW Facilitator will review your progress with the Clinical Objectives for the specific placement as well as the Specific Criteria Tables contained in the clinical record book. The TAFE NSW Facilitator will liaise with health care facility staff to collect information regarding your clinical performance and attributes required for employability. Feedback will be obtained about punctuality, communication skills, and student s ability to work as a member of a team, your ability to work within their scope of practice, professionalism and general work ethics. Satisfactory progress with clinical objectives, specific criteria tables, observation of clinical skills and the Holistic Assessment Events are required to successfully complete the workplace module which is essential for course completion. Your workplace facilitator/ assessor MUST comply with all relevant and current legislation and refer to the Work Health and Safety Act 2011. Assessors The assessor must provide clear and constructive feedback to the student regarding the assessment decision. If required, the assessor should develop a follow-up action plan with the student. The plan could include gap training or further learning and additional practise opportunities. Students are only permitted three attempts to achieve competency with assessments. An action plan will be developed and documented after the second attempt before the student attends their third assessment attempt. It would be appropriate to consider an alternate assessor for the third assessment attempt if the one assessor had undertaken the first two unsuccessful assessments. The clinical coordinator is to be notified of the failed second assessment and they will notify the TAFE NSW head teacher if the student gives you cause for concern during their clinical placement. If client safety is ever an issue the registered nurse is to contact the clinical coordinator and the actions as outlined on page 8 will be implemented. Assessment of the students must take place within a TAFE NSW approved health care facility and the Registered Nurse must hold the required competencies to undertake the assessment. The competencies required by the assessor are the Certificate IV in Training and Education (TAE 10) or the Assessor Skill Set from the TAE qualification. The Ramsay assessor must also: Be a Registered Nurse with a current authority to practice with Two (2) years post registration experience either full-time or equivalent or be a clinical nurse educator or clinical nurse specialist and Have their name on the Assessor database [held by each TAFE NSW institute] As part of this course you are required to undertake and be observed performing the following: Page 6 of 84
1. Holistic assessment The Holistic Assessment will be undertaken several times in the professional experience environment. This assessment is to assess your interaction with clients, your communication skills and application of clinical skills. The aim of the Holistic assessment is to gain feedback on the application of skills in the clinical context. Assessment of these skills and the feedback that is required from the nursing staff in the health care facility will provide the evidence required for satisfactory completion of the workplace clinical practice module & achievement of employability skills. 2. Observation of skills You will be required to be observed competently performing the clinical skills that have been assessed in TAFE NSW simulated laboratories, in the professional experience environment. The medication administration skills are to be observed whilst you are under the supervision of the registered nurse. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation will not be reflected in this list. These skills should be observed more than once for you to demonstrate application of the skills in different contexts. 1. Hand hygiene 2. Manual handling/ risk assessment 3. Assessing and recording temperature, pulse, respirations 4. Assessing and recording blood pressure 5. Performing urinalysis 6. Blood glucose monitoring (BGL) 7. Aseptic dressing technique 8. Neurological observations 9. Checking S8 medications 10. Administration of medication Oral - minimum four (4) clients per round 11. Administration of medication - IMI or SCI 12. Administration of medication- IV Page 7 of 84
Specific Criteria To provide direction and focus for your clinical placement each unit of competency has been explored to extract specific criteria for you to observe, discuss or perform. Some skills may overlap in several clinical placements and you must become familiar with the range of criteria included. These items are placed in tables following the list of clinical objectives for specific placements. You will be required to observe, discuss and if the task falls within the scope of practice for a student enrolled nurse at the particular health care facility, and you have received theoretical and practical demonstration, you may be able to perform the skill. If the activity cannot be observed or performed in the workplace you should seek an opportunity to discuss the issue with your TAFE NSW Facilitator or health care facility staff member. Your TAFE NSW Facilitator will review your progress with the completion of the Specific Criteria Table. The specific criteria listed for Basic and Acute surgical nursing is mandatory and must be completed. It is expected that if you have a specialist placement area that has specific criteria listed, you will make every effort to complete these additional areas. Satisfactory progress with clinical objectives, specific criteria tables and workplace assessments are required to successfully complete the workplace module which is essential for course completion. Client Safety Client safety is a priority with your professional experience. If you are not achieving competencies or demonstrate unsafe practice in the clinical area at any time, steps will be taken to determine the level of risk to the client. Planned actions will be put into place to provide you with every opportunity to improve your practice. If satisfactory progress cannot be demonstrated in the specific areas you will fail your clinical module and will be unable to complete the course. Please refer to the following flowchart.

SECTION TWO: NATIONAL COMPETENCY STANDARDS The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Council (2002) National Standards for the Enrolled Nurse.
