Practice Placements and Transportation

If you currently hold a restricted license, you will need to identify alternative transport arrangements before you go out on clinical placements, which may require you to attend after 10pm.

You should be aware that it is likely you will need unrestricted access to a reliable vehicle by the time you are rostered for your first clinical placement.

As part of your programme you will be required to undertake clinical placements which will require you having access to reliable transport to both local and rural clinical placements for both day and night shifts. This is important to consider if you currently hold only a restricted license.

I understand that this programme requires clinical placement. I confirm that I understand that I am responsibile for managing travel and accomodation to support the completion of the programme.
