2024 unit information
Students are placed in one off-campus clinic, hospital, or other setting in a 6-week block attending a minimum of 4 days per week (or equivalent). Over the semester they manage a varied child or adult caseload, participate in a variety of clinical service and multidisciplinary team activities. Note: students are required to complete one adult and one paediatric community placement. If this placement is paediatric, CSCD4056 will be adult and vice versa. If this is a student’s penultimate paediatric, they are required to be nearing entry level on the COMPASS assessment. If it’s a student’s adult or final paediatric or adult placement they are required to be at entry level on the COMPASS assessment.
