The Integrated Degree – The Story so far
 BMS Modernisation Board – 2005/2006
 November/December 2006 – Panic!!!
 GCU/Laboratory representatives looked at standards
and the degree programme
 26 main HPC standards covered by the portfolio
 Mapping exercise
 West of Scotland Training Manual
 6 courses completed in 2007
 Feedback from delegates helped in
improvements
 27 students successfully completed portfolio
2008
 26 Laboratories involved
 Majority of laboratories used the West of
Scotland manual or adapted it
2008/2009
 3 courses – changes based on feedback
 Introduction of student feedback to TtT
 39 students placed February 2009
 38 Laboratories involved
 20 students graduated 2009
 Further improvements implemented based on
feedback

Include an overview of out of hours arrangements
and requirement for EWTD rule.
Departmental structure
Students should be provided with copy of
departmental organisational chart and key roles in
the department explained
Individual role
What they should expect from their placement and
what the expectations of the department are. Stress
the requirement to recognise the limit of their
practice.
Confidentiality
Breach treated a serious misconduct reportable to
the University, inevitably, resulting in removal from
placement. Will receive a Data Protection tutorial
Sickness
Important that these students follow same rule as
departmental staff. Sickness Absence reporting
procedure, also procedure for informing the
department of potential lateness. There will also be
a procedure and a requirement to inform the
University of any sickness absence.

Standards that govern and affect pathology laboratory
practice.
KNOWLEDGE

and the requirements for registration.
 Understand the responsibilities of, and statement of conduct
for, biomedical scientists.
 Understand how the HPC Standards of Proficiency apply to
professional practice.
 Be aware of the Institute’s document Good Professional
Practice for Biomedical Scientists.
 Be aware of pathology accreditation systems.
 Be aware of the legal and professional requirements for the
handling, retention, storage and respectful disposal of
human tissues and samples
COMPETENCE
You must be able to:
 Explain the role of the Health Professions Council
and the requirements for registration.
 Work in accordance with policies that protect the
dignity, privacy and confidentiality of patients.
 Describe the principles of accreditation systems for
pathology laboratories in the UK
EVIDENCE OF ACHIEVEMENT- Shared
This section requires the internal assessor to sign that the trainee has successfully achieved fitness to
practice. The student should collect and prepare supporting evidence as a separate portfolio and
cross-reference the following statements to this.

ACL TOPS main coagulation
analyser used in the laboratory –
Venous sample can be processed on
this analyser to obtain INR result –
used for anticoagulant monitoring –
Total time taken from receipt of
sample to result – 17minutes
Coaguchek portable analyser for
measurement for near patient
testing of INR – analyser is
taken to patient.
Total time taken - <5minutes
What I’ve Learned?
 Group tutorials for generic topics
 Keep it simple – large volumes of evidence
does not guarantee success
 Remember – Generic not discipline specific
 Achieve a basic level of competence
 Use West of Scotland Training Manual
 Familiarisation with portfolio results in more
effective cross referencing
 Ability to see the portfolio as a whole and not
as individual standards
 Always thinking ahead e.g. assessment walk
round
 Students talk to each other – have confidence
in your methods
