Welcome to the Sheffield Hallam University Physician Associate practice placement site for supervisors and students.
This site is a guide to help you make the most of your placements. The resources on the site are for you, your placement supervisors and University tutors. Here you will find essential day to day information for students and supervisors/line managers. The headings on the left of this page will direct you to a range of supporting materials which are available to download, and links to websites that will guide you on Physician Associate professional requirements and inform you about providers of services.
Learning in the workplace plays a key part in the student experience and students spend a substantial part of their Physician Associate course on placement. Placement learning involves a major commitment on the part of the placement providers as well as the students, so we hope that students maximise the opportunity to learn from and contribute to the experience.
Placement opportunities provide students with the chance to learn about good practice at first hand and SHU recognises and values the contribution of the placements in that process. We thank all those organisations for their work.
Students are advised that they must follow their placement provider's policies and guidelines at all times while on placement.
