Student Compliance
Before a student can commence a placement in any NSW Health facility, students must meet the mandatory policy requirements within their first year of enrolment.
It is each student’s responsibility to complete and retain all student compliance requirements and provide evidence of compliance prior to attending a placement in any NSW Health Facility.

What do I do?
Collect your evidence as early as you can when you commence your degree - read our Booklet as this will inform you as to what to collect.
What evidence do I need to become 'compliant'?
An Australian Police Check (NPC), Overseas police Check or statutory declaration ( for International students), competed NSW Health forms, vaccination evidence, COVID-19 and Influenza vaccination evidence, and Blood Borne Virus Declaration (certain disciplines). Look up your program of study or subject in the Handbook entry to see if this is what applies to you.
Assessment vs Outcome - what's the difference?

Why do I need to be assessed?
NSW Health requires students to be assessed in their first year of enrolment regardless of when they go on their first placement in any NSW Health facility. This ensures enough time for students to address any compliance or vaccination issues as early as possible.
Western and our NSW Health partners have a duty of care to ensure your safety, and the safety of the people you will interact with.
