Aims

This course will empower the students with the theoretical knowledge required to develop and support the clinical skills that they will be learning and utilising during the practice module and whilst on clinical placement. During the clinical placement the students will be provided with and assessed via a Practice Assessment Document (PAD). The Practice Assessment Documentation must be completed fully and all aspects of the skills log must be signed as competent to be accepted as a pass by sign off mentor and module lead. Therefore the Practice Assessment Document is recorded as either a pass or a fail.
