7.6 Incident Reporting & Injury Reporting Process

If you are attending your Clinical Professional Practice Placement and you are injured, please advise your Clinical Instructor immediately. Your instructor will notify the agency, the PSW Placement Coordinator and the PSW Program Coordinator. Your Clinical Instructor will connect with you and the agency to complete the appropriate Incident Form(s).

Incident forms are time sensitive and need to be completed within 24 hrs. You may be required to provide medical documentation to return to the Clinical Professional Practice setting.
