Working with Health Education England, NHS partners and Universities within the West Yorkshire & Harrogate Integrated Care Board, Neoniq’s, technology enhanced, digitally delivered, placement learning experience was  designed alongside the NHS to help healthcare students' development. It uses a coaching approach, to explore and enhance students' professional identity, digital skills and their leadership skills whilst allowing them to explore and enhance their personal and professional wellbeing. During the 2021/22 academic year we have delivered digital placements to over 200 nursing and physiotherapy students from 4 Universities.

​

The placements have a designated PARE profile and are audited. Feedback to date has been overwhelmingly positive. Nursing students are also able to evidence NMC proficiencies as part of the placement.

 

 95% of students who submitted placement evaluations would recommend the placement to other healthcare students, whilst the remaining 5% would 'maybe' recommend the placement

​

Placements delivered to date have been bespoke and have consisted of themed weeks, the placement length typically being between 4 and 6 weeks. The weeks have been used together as stand-alone practice learning activities, or combined with face to face placements as part of a blended practice experience. There is a strong focus on reflection, self and peer evaluation and as you would expect for any placement, there will interaction with service users, carers and healthcare professionals during placement activities.
