Section A: Logs of clinical and indirect/strategic organisational influence experiences.

There are four types of logs covering two areas of professional practice learning experience. All four should be completed or updated for each placement:

A1 Placement log of clinical experiences

All clinical contacts and clinical activity should be recorded in this log. It is likely to document clinical assessments and interventions, involving face-to-face work with service users, their carers and families. However, indirect work and time spent liaising or consulting with others about a person should also be noted.

Please recordonly clinical contacts where you are the principal or joint lead.

A2 Cumulative summary of clinical experiences

As for A1 above but summarizing the clinical activity information for all placements to date.

A3 Placement log of indirect & strategic organisational influence experiences

This log should be used to recordall other types of professional activity such as teaching, training, presentations, research activity, inter-professional liaison, multidisciplinary work, supervision, consultancy, service development, service user involvement work, leadership experiences etc.

A4 Cumulative summary of indirect & strategic organisational influence experiences

As for A3 above but summarizing professional practice experiences for all placements to date.

Individual placement clinical experiences and indirect/strategic influence experiences logs should be signed off by the placement supervisor.

Cumulative summaries should be used by trainees and their managers to plan future learning opportunities on subsequent placements, for instance at Training Reviews and when meeting to determine training needs for the next placement.
