Placement Log – Documents & Summary

Overall, I am happy with the progression of my placement, when starting I was not sure if it was something I was really interested in, however it has been very enjoyable (so far), and has educated me a lot. I worried because I already had training on safeguarding, DOL’s and confidentiality due to my previous job, it was interesting to see it from a different perspective as an advocate rather than a care assistant and how advocates use this training in their jobs. I think that creating a peer support group will benefit my career as a clinical psychologist because it gives me experience in facing new challenges everyday, meeting new clients (students), and helping them and guiding them in the right and positive direction to being independent and empowered. I look forward to challenging myself more and becoming involved in adding new members to the peer support group if participants are interested in joining, this will help gain my confidence when talking to new people. So far, this placement is definitely something I would be happy to put on my CV.

Here shows all of my documents, unfortunately I have not completed my placement, so not all documents are available to show. Most of the paperwork contains confidential pieces which I do not share to disclose, however, they will be uploaded, but there will be edits over signatures, email addresses etc. (I can’t get my blog private). Down below, also shows Louise’s input to my time on placement, it is really good to hear something positive, and it motivates me to carry on and do well with not only this module, but the others too ?
