For students studying Nursing
A Consolidation Placement (also referred to as a Management Placement) is the final placement of your course; it seeks to consolidate all your practice-based learning into one extended placement.
All final year students are welcome to request a placement for the consolidation aspect of their course. We ask you to make three choices in order of preference and whilst we endeavour to accommodate one of your consolidations requests we cannot guarantee that we can place you at your chosen placement. If we cannot manage the specific request, we will look for similar placements.
