The subject Tutored Practicals V will allow students to acquire competences by means of clinical practicals, solving practical cases and tutorials (personalised attention).
- Clinical practicals.
This is a fundamental element in the development of professional competences in health sciences.
The clinical practicals will be carried out in the health centres dependent on the Galician Health Service and are detailed below:
- Santiago de Compostela-Barbanza Health Area.
o University Clinical Hospital
o Conxo Medical-Surgical Hospital.
o Gil Casares Hospital
o Conxo Psychiatric Hospital
o Barbanza Hospital
o Health Centres corresponding to the health area of Santiago de Compostela-Barbanza.
Students in the 4th year of the Degree, by default, will carry out the PT in the Santiago Compostela-Barbanza Health Area. In addition, a limited number of places will be offered in the rest of the Health Areas of the Autonomous Community, subject to prior authorisation by the "Axencia de Coñecemento en Saúde" (ACIS).
On the first day of the placement in each of the different units where students will have to rotate, the Associate Professor of Health Sciences (PACS), or failing this, a teaching collaborator designated by him/her, will be in charge of receiving the new students, in order to, among other things, explain the basic functioning of the unit as well as the rules relating to the rotation (attendance, evaluation criteria, etc.).
- Resolution of clinical cases.
The PACS responsible for tutoring students in their respective units may ask students to solve practical cases in order to facilitate the teaching-learning process and/or assess the competences acquired during the training period.
- Tutoring.
Personalised attention so that students can raise any problems or difficulties they encounter in the acquisition of competences.
The PACS, in close communication with the teaching collaborators, will issue an evaluation report based on the degree of fulfilment of the competences-skills that the students must acquire during the training period in each of the destinations, both primary care and specialised care, where the students will develop their training.
The evaluation will take into consideration compliance with the rules for the development of the internship, consisting of:
- Attendance and punctuality
- Appropriate working attire
- Professional secrecy and confidentiality.
The competences that are subject to assessment are detailed in the assessment sheets corresponding to each of the units where the student carries out the training period. The assessment sheets are available to students in the Tutored Work Placement guide published on the Faculty's website.
In addition, the PACS or teaching collaborator responsible for student assessment in each of the units may request a report on the most important aspects of the rotation related to the learning objectives.
The results obtained will be graded according to the following numerical scale from 0 to 10, in accordance with the degree of mastery achieved:
- Grade 1 =Failure (0-4.9)
No effort is made to acquire the competence and does not demonstrate that the competence has been acquired or is rarely acquired.
- Grade 2 = Pass (5-6.9)

- Grade 3 = Pass (7-8,9)
Has learnt the competence and his/her behaviour shows that he/she applies it.
- Grade 4 = Outstanding / Honours (9-10)
Has integrated the competence into his/her behavioural habits.
Attendance is compulsory. Absences must be justified in writing within ten days of the end of the process or cause that prevented the student from attending the internship.
- Justified cause: the justification will be made by presenting the accrediting document to the PACS and does not exempt from the recovery. The dates and times for make-up will be agreed with the PACS.

Excused absences are included in the regulations for class attendance in courses adapted to the European Higher Education Area approved by the "Consello de Goberno da USC do 25 de marzo de 2010".

- Causes for negative assessment:
1. Failure to achieve the established training objectives, due to learning difficulties that can be recovered.
2. Unexcused absences.
