• At the end of the block, each group of students is responsible for ensuring that any identification signs and maps are handed over to the following group of students or returned to the Department/Division.
• Should any problem arise while the student is working in the community, he/she must immediately contact the nearest police station and enquire about the safest/recommended route to leave the area.
• Students must never go alone on a home visit, nor drive alone to the clinical placement.
• Car doors must be kept locked at all times, and items of value, e.g. handbags, laptops, purses and cellular phones and even study material, must always be kept out of sight. Wherever possible, lock up facilities should be provided by the clinic or other institution. If these are not provided, ensure that all valuables/important items are out of sight, preferably locked in the boot of the car.
