Paramedic Science

Welcome to the Sheffield Hallam University Paramedic Practice clinical placement site for stakeholders, mentors and students.

This site has been developed as a guide to help the student make the most of their practice placements.

Practice placements are an important part of the paramedic education programme and make up 50% of the learning time while at university.

It is important that students feel proficient and 'fit to practice' by the time they qualify as a paramedic and as this site contains many helpful hints and suggestions to assist them to achieve this aim, we recommend that both mentors and students read through the following sections before starting practice placements begin. This site also allows stakeholder’s to view current policies for students and their mentors.

Students are advised that they must follow their placement provider's policies and guidelines at all times while on placement.
