Abstract

Enhancing the placement learning experiences of health and social care students: the role of library and information services

The aim of this study is to identify difficulties experienced and the support required by placement students in health and social care in accessing and using library and information services. Themes emerging from focus groups with midwifery, post-registration nursing and social work students on placement and interviews with supporting staff will be presented in the light of creating a tool and support networks designed to enhance the student learning experience whilst on placement.

Presented with Alan Doherty
