Clinical Procedures Portfolio
10 weeks · 0 milestones
Build a supervised clinical procedures portfolio with competency ratings. Proof requires documentation of at least 5 different supervised procedures (e.g. wound care, catheterisation, venepuncture, IV cannulation, nasogastric tube insertion) with a supervisor competency rating for each. Supervisor must be a registered nurse or clinical educator. Ratings must be recorded on the official placement assessment form — not a student-authored document. Peer verification is NOT accepted for any clinical procedure in this portfolio. The proof documents supervised skill development.

Under direct clinical supervision, observe 5 clinical procedures relevant to your training programme (e.g. venepuncture, blood pressure measurement, wound dressing, medication administration, or equivalent for your allied health discipline). For each observation, write a structured log: procedure type, brief description of what occurred (patient anonymised), what the supervisor checked before and after the procedure, and what safety steps you observed. Logs are observational records only — you perform no procedures at this stage.
Proof required
Submit 5 observation logs and written confirmation from your clinical supervisor that these observations occurred. Supervisor must be a registered healthcare professional. All patient information must be fully anonymised.
What gets checked
- Each log describes a specific, named procedure — 'I observed some clinical work' is not a log entry.
- Safety steps and pre/post checks are described for each procedure — not assumed to be obvious.
- Patient information is fully anonymised — no names, dates of birth, or identifying combinations.
