Students undertake five nursing clinical placements totalling at least 800 hours of professional experience and five paramedicine clinical placements in a variety of healthcare environments. In addition, innovative simulation activities provide a rounded and robust learning experience to prepare for real-world clinical and professional challenges. Students must take a medical and physical capacity test prior to commencing clinical placement with an Australian ambulance service. This is an ambulance service mandatory requirement. Before students can begin professional experience for this course, students should review the mandatory State or Territory legal and industry policy requirements. An overview of these requirements can be found at https://www.acu.edu.au/WILsearch. Students must meet the inherent requirements – essential components of this course (capabilities, knowledge and skills) – to achieve the course learning outcomes.
