Raising Concerns

You can raise a 'concern' when you are worried about an issue that affects the people you are caring for and you are acting to protect them. This form can also be used to notify the School of Health Sciences of any incidents which have occurred in practice which involve HSC learners, or if an incident has impacted on the practice area as a learning environment.

This form can be completed by any member of the University (academic, administrative or support staff), a member of staff from a practise placement area, a member of the public or another student.
