The practice profiles on this page will provide information to students to support them in preparing for their placement.

Each practice profile will contain contact and location details for the placement area, a description of the service and client group, information on shift patterns, recommended reading and specific learning opportunities.  

Please take time to read the practice profile prior to commencing your placement as this will ensure you are appropriately prepared. 

We hope you enjoy your placement experience and please do complete your end of placement feedback form so we can share good feedback and continue to improve placement experiences for students.

Our acute services offer students a wide range of practical experiences and the opportunity to develop clinical knowledge and skills in a supportive environment. The practice profiles listed in this section cover our planned and unplanned areas.
