"Dominic is a well presented student who consistently arrives on time and is prepared for the day's work. Dominic has shown great
improvement in assessment, care planning and evaluation of outcomes while working in child health. He has grown in confidence in
communicating with parents and children and understands the principles of family partnership to ensure culturally safe care. Dominic
always handled infants safely and ensure informed consent was obtained from parents prior to assessment. It was a pleasure to have Dominic work alongside staff during this placement" - Most recent ANSAT placement report from QCH.
