Insurance Guide INSURANCE Insurance Guide CLINICAL PLACEMENT INDEMNITY INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS UNDERTAKING APPROVED CLINICAL PLACEMENTS 2012 Statement of Intent The placement of medical, dental and nursing students into a clinical environment is a necessary component of their course of study, which is fostered and supported by the Faculty of Health Sciences. Working in a clinical environment places a student in a risk environment which has potential to involve the Faculty and the student in an adverse event. The Faculty of Health Sciences is committed to supporting our students when they are participating in the clinical placement component of their course. This guide has been produced to assist our students in their understanding of theirs and the Universities obligations when faced with a medical indemnity issue. Professor Justin Beilby Executive Dean Faculty of Health Science 79
Background All students enrolled in the University of Adelaide Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery, Bachelor of Dentistry and Bachelor of Nursing programs are required to undertake clinical placements as part of their program curriculum. These clinical placements may be hospital based or community based, or may have components of each. Supervision In all clinical placements students will be under the supervision of a nominated supervisor who has accepted the responsibility for the education and clinical teaching of the student. The documentation for each clinical attachment specifies the rights and responsibilities of student and supervisor as well as any specific limitations upon the activities of the student. Student Status Students are not registered medical, dental or nursing practitioners and are therefore not registered to practice their discipline in any capacity. Their student status allows them to undertake supervised clinical activity in an approved clinical attachment. Indemnification The University will provide financial protection for claims against a student participating in an approved clinical placement or electives, either by way of insurance or other mechanism. If a claim is made against a student in relation to their activities whilst participating in an approved clinical placement or elective and there has been no criminal intent on the part of the student, the University will proved a legal defence and where necessary meet the cost of such a claim either through insurance of from its own resources. Medical Defence Organisation The University recommends that all students join a medical defence organisation that provides medical indemnity insurance. Each student will need to assess the policies offered by the medical defence organisation to determine whether the policy suits their personal circumstances, what they will be covered for and the exclusions that will apply to the cover they choose. The University does not recommend or endorse any policy or medical defence organisation. University Insurance The University purchases insurance to provide indemnity to the University in the event of claim made by a third party. In certain circumstances this indemnity is extended to students of the University. Insurance that extends to students are: Public Liability Student Personal Accident Security and insurance of student personal property DRH does not accept responsibility for lost, stolen or damaged property belonging to students. Students are required to have their own individual insurance cover for all personal items. 80
