The core areas that all SHU updates for supervisors, assessors and practice educators must include and which should be very clearly communicated are:
- Update with NMC / SWE professional standards
- Understand the students' programme
- Understand assessment process that occurs in practice
- Understand process to follow when a student is failing to progress
- Know how to access placement information websites for key information and SHU contacts
- Know how to access placement information websites for key information about support available to them in their role in supporting the students
- Know SHU placement learning policies are housed on the SHU placement learning websites and know processes for escalation of concerns, and
- The essential need for the placement provider to communicate with the university about any incidents or accidents or concerns.
