Torres and Cape Hospital and Health Service Placement Requirements

Important: These requirements apply only to students allocated a placement with Torres and Cape Hospital and Health Service (TCHHS).

If you are allocated a TCHHS placement, you will receive an email explaining how to complete the additional requirements.

Placements in Weipa or Cooktown:

Influenza vaccination – You must have a current influenza vaccination. Email evidence to healthplacements@jcu.edu.au.

NDIS worker screening – Obtain an NDIS/Queensland Disability Worker Screening Clearance. Give your Worker Screening Card details to the placement provider so they can link you to their organisation for the duration of your placement.
