Welcome to the ACH Group student placement information web page that supports communication regarding student placements for both educators and students.

ACH Group values a learning culture and we use an Interprofessional Learning (IPL) approach for student placements, which is when two or more professions (eg: a nurse and a physiotherapist) work together to learn and reflect about their professions’ similarities and differences. ACH Group believes an IPL approach to learning improves communication, collaboration, reduces risk of practising in isolation and ultimately improves the quality of care.

More than 900 students participate in work placements each year, and in 2018/19, 20 per cent of care staff employed came from student placements.

Information for Students

If you are seeking a placement with ACH Group, your training provider will need to complete a request directly via this link. ACH Group does not accept student placement requests made by individuals at this time.

As every year, Anzac Day was marked with services across the ACH Group Community to pay respect.

🌹 At Kapara, a moving Anzac Day service was facilitated by Major Reno Elms from the Salvation Army. Reno has been volunteering at Kapara for the last eighteen years. As noted by Michelle, Community Connector Lead, this year had the biggest turnout, with over sixty residents and family members in attendance.

🌹 At Highercombe, Sam proudly read a reflective poem during the Anzac Day service, while other residents, including veterans Stephen and Fred, also reflected on the importance of showing respect.

🌹 It was a drizzly and cold morning for the dawn service at McLaren Vale Memorial Park, but Karen, Group Planner at Colton Court, reflected that it was wonderful and emotional, as always.

🌹 At West Park, Goolwa RSL members facilitated the Anzac Day service for residents and families. Wreath-making and baking Anzac biscuits were also part of the activities to commemorate Anzac Day.

Thank you to all who joined this important commemoration across ACH Group.
