Assessment Requirements

In compliance with the principles listed above students must:

  1. Remove names and addresses, identification numbers and any other form of identification from their work that could lead to the identification of an individual in their care. (Do not use labels, TippexTM or black markers, students must recopy if used or cut out any identifying data).
  2. Exclude the name of the organization, except where students must produce a portfolio to evidence practice or a work-based learning contract in which staff and organization names must be identified. An organization might be a local authority, NHS trust, statutory or voluntary agency, hospital, clinic, school, day- centre or residential unit. However, in academic assignments, detailed descriptions of the workplace, personal or family backgrounds or any specific data that could lead to the identification of workplace, service-users, carers or staff members must be omitted
  3. Exclude the name of the organization on documents or information produced for use by the organization, unless these are published and available in the public domain.
  4. Replace actual names with pseudonyms when writing about a particular person or place and state as early as possible in the assignment that the name(s) used is/are fictitious.
  5. Please note the following:

Unless a declaration is made within work submitted for assessment that a pseudonym has been used for a patient/client/service-user/learner, markers will assume that confidentiality has been breached and will award a zero percentage mark. Markers will not seek to verify confidentiality on the student’s behalf.

  1. Ensure that personal data, including hospital numbers, case numbers, names and addresses are not stored in electronic files or paper copies of their work.
  2. Ensure that they do NOT remove organizational personal or medical records from the workplace without following organizations’ procedures.
  3. Obtain consent from the patient/client/service-user/learner and a senior member of staff or practice assessor/verifier to copy data from their records (e.g. treatment records or care plans) for use in course assignments, paying due regard to confidentiality by removing names, addresses database numbers and any other form of identification from copies of records.

Students must not submit for publication work that includes confidential information. However, students may submit material for ‘end point’, publication where subjects cannot be recognised.
