Welcome to the Sheffield Hallam University Radiotherapy and Oncology clinical placement site for mentors, assessors and students.
Information contained in this site applies to:
- BSc (Hons) Radiotherapy and Oncology
- MSc Radiotherapy and Oncology in Practice (Pre-Registration)
- DA BSc (Hons) Radiotherapy and Oncology (Degree Apprenticeship route)
Clinical placement training is a vital part of our students' skill acquisition and accounts for a significant proportion of the programme. It is important that students are proficient and 'fit for practice' by the end of the programme and your input as a mentor in supporting, supervising and assessing these students is vital for these aims to be achieved.
Students are advised that they must follow their placement provider's policies and guidelines at all times while on placement.

This site has been developed to provide information to guide the supervision, support and assessment of students whilst they are on clinical placements. It also gives information about mentorship and individuals in the University who you can contact if you require more information and/or support.
