Note:

Professional Experience Placement (PEP)

Students will be allocated PEP within individual health care agencies. Students must be available 5 days a week (mornings, evenings, weekends, nightshifts, as per roster), may be expected to relocate and are expected to travel to where PEP is available. To be eligible to undertake PEP, all students must be ‘Verified’ as meeting College of Health and Medicine PEP Safety in Practice Compliance as per the Course Entry Requirements.

Students who cannot or do not comply with these requirements will not be allocated PEP and therefore will not be able to complete this unit.

PEP dates MAY differ from University of Tasmania calendar semester dates.

Introduction

This unit builds on the learning in Nursing Practice 2 and incorporates 160 hours of Professional Experience Placement. The unit is presented in a module format to support the in-practice experience with a focus on complex clinical encounters that challenge professional nursing practice. The NMBA's Registered Nurse Standards of Practice is the framework for the unit and students must demonstrate progress towards these Standards.
