This LEAP document explains the assurance process initiated when triggers are identified that may affect the educational suitability of a practice placement area. These triggers need to be referred to The Leicester School of Nursing and Midwifery, De Montfort University by our placement providers or relevant staff and students so that concerns can be assessed and, when necessary, managed. This framework includes the opportunity to explore and learn from these events and feedback to the students and staff who have been involved.
