InPlace and NSW Health ClinConnect Compliance

In addition to completing University of Tasmania compliance requirements, prior to undertaking any Professional Experience Placement (PEP) in NSW, all students must complete NSW Health Compliance requirements and be verified in their placement management system, ClinConnect.

NSW Health ClinConnect verification is separate to the University of Tasmania requirements. Therefore, students will need to submit specific compliance documents to the University, who will forward these documents to NSW Health. Students will be advised of the outcome by the ClinConnect Coordinator.

There are two components to NSW Health ClinConnect Compliance. These are:

General Compliance

  • NSW Health Code of Conduct
  • National Police Certificate, NSW Health Appendix 5 Statutory Declaration if needed (and ESRU clearance if offenses are listed on your police certificate)
  • 100 point ID checklist (medical laboratory students only)
  • NSW Heath Pathology Privacy Undertaking Form for Employee/Contractor (medical laboratory students only)

Health Protection Status (Immunisation Compliance)

Compliance can be checked at any time by logging in to InPlace.

NSW Health ClinConnect Status is view only for students. This compliance item is updated weekly via a direct data import between ClinConnect and InPlace on a Friday. (First year students note: this item will only become active after Study Period One census date).

There are three levels of NSW Health ClinConnect Compliance status:

NSW Health ClinConnect Status: Compliant

Students have met all NSW Health compliance requirements and will only need to update their ClinConnect status when nearing expiry.

NSW Health ClinConnect Status: Compliant

NSW Health ClinConnect Status: Temporary Compliant

Students have presented their national police certificate, NSW Health Code of Conduct, and the minimum vaccination record requirements to NSW Health, but still need to complete either Hepatitis B vaccinations and serology and/or TB screening.

Temporary compliance lasts for six months, and NSW Health only grants this once to first year students. Please note:

Students may attend placements with NSW Health Temporary Compliance if their temporary status expires after the end of placement and all University of Tasmania mandatory compliance requirements have been met. However, outstanding requirements will need to be completed to be eligible to attend placements that occur after the expiry date.

NSW Health ClinConnect Status: Not Compliant

Students have either not presented their police certificate, NSW Health Code of Conduct, and/or have not met NSW Health minimum vaccination requirements.
