Prepare for your Nursing and Midwifery placement
Before you commence your placement, you will need to submit evidence that you have met the requirements below. Some of these requirements have expiry dates so there will be times when you will need to renew a requirement.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you meet these requirements and renew any requirement before it expires.
The Placement Ready team is here to help you. We will communicate with you via email and occasionally by phone. It is essential that you read and promptly action the emails we send you so that we can assist you to be placement ready.
