Where can I give feedback or raise and escalate concerns about my clinical placement?

During your time on placement there may be occasions when you would like to provide feedback or feel the need to raise concerns. 

There are different procedures for raising concerns and providing feedback depending on which department you are studying with.

Health sciences

Please read the raising concerns guidance document for information on how to raise concerns about practice which they feel may be putting the safety and wellbeing of patients at risk. It is important that you familiarise yourself with this guidance and raise concerns immediately and appropriately. You will be supported through this process, as explained within the document. The Lead for Escalation of Student Practice Concerns can be contacted by email.
