Going on placement can be one of the best experiences of your life but it’s understandable that it might be quite a daunting prospect at first. We've put together some quick information to help you while you're away, and to remind you that the Students' Union is still here for you, even if you're not in Cardiff.

Gall fynd ar leoliad fod yn un o brofiadau gorau eich bywyd ond gall y syniad godi ofn arnoch i ddechrau sy’n gwbl ddealladwy. Rydym wedi rhoi rhywfaint o wybodaeth at ei gilydd yn gyflym i’ch helpu tra byddwch i ffwrdd, ac i’ch atgoffa bod Undeb y Myfyrwyr dal yma i chi, hyd yn oed os nad ydych chi yng Nghaerdydd.

Tackling Sexual Violence Mynd i'r Afael â Thrais Rhywiol

Time to act:

Mae’n Amser Gweithredu:

Sexual violence and misconduct can happen anywhere, even on your placement. For students at Heath Park, this can be perpetuated by staff, patients or even your fellow students. With the healthcare setting being so fast paced it can be hard to know where to report or how to challenge such behaviour.

Gall trais rhywiol a chamymddwyn ddigwydd yn unrhyw le, hyd yn oed ar leoliad. I fyfyrwyr ym Mharc y Mynydd Bychan, gall hyn ddigwydd gyda staff, cleifion neu hyd yn oed eich cyd-fyfyrwyr. Gyda'r maes gofal iechyd mor gyflym ei natur, gall fod yn anodd gwybod ble i roi gwybod amdano neu sut i herio ymddygiad o'r fath.

BMA conducted a study with medical students which found that 41% of female and 19% of male respondents have experienced sexual assault during their studies, including on their clinical placement with 67% of those choosing not to report over fear that nothing would be done.

Cynhaliodd BMA astudiaeth gyda myfyrwyr meddygol a ganfu fod 41% o fenywod a 19% o ddynion a ymatebodd wedi profi ymosodiad rhywiol yn ystod eu hastudiaethau, gan gynnwys ar eu lleoliad clinigol, gyda 67% o'r rhai yn dewis peidio ag adrodd oherwydd ofn na fyddai dim yn cael ei wneud.

This shows just how systemic sexual misconduct is but just know you are not alone and this page is here to give you all the information you need.

Mae hyn yn dangos pa mor systemig yw camymddwyn rhywiol, ond cofiwch nad ydych chi ar eich pen eich hun ac mae'r dudalen hon yma i roi'r holl wybodaeth sydd ei hangen arnoch chi.

Whether something has happened to you on placement, in the past or is currently ongoing, or even if you are worried about someone else and how best to support them. This page will break down how and who you can report to and the support available to you as a student.

P'un a yw rhywbeth wedi digwydd i chi ar leoliad, yn y gorffennol neu ar hyn o bryd, neu hyd yn oed os ydych chi'n poeni am rywun arall a'r ffordd orau o'u cefnogi. Bydd y dudalen hon yn esbonio sut a phwy allwch chi roi gwybod iddo a'r gefnogaeth sydd ar gael i chi fel myfyriwr.

Whatever you choose to do and whenever you choose to do it, support is available to you. You deserve safety, dignity and love. Whatever has happened is not your fault and there are people available to you to speak to, no matter what, with no judgement . You do not have to do this alone; there is help available to you.

Beth bynnag a ddewiswch ei wneud a phryd bynnag y dewiswch ei wneud, mae cefnogaeth ar gael i chi. Rydych chi'n haeddu diogelwch, urddas a chariad. Nid eich bai chi yw beth bynnag sydd wedi digwydd ac mae pobl ar gael i chi siarad â nhw, beth bynnag fo’r amgylchiadau, heb unrhyw farn. Nid oes rhaid i chi fynd trwy hyn ar eich pen eich hun; mae cymorth ar gael i chi.

Depending on your circumstances you will need to choose the appropriate type of report, see below:

Report + Support Adrodd + Chymorth

Report + Support is Cardiff University’s confidential tool for raising concerns and accessing support. This is not a formal reporting tool but it can start the process of giving you guidance and support in then being able to make the decision to formally report using one of the other methods above.

Mae Adrodd + Cymorth yn offeryn cyfrinachol ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd ar gyfer codi pryderon a chael mynediad at gymorth. Nid offeryn adrodd ffurfiol yw hwn ond gall ddechrau'r broses o roi arweiniad a chymorth i chi er mwyn gallu gwneud y penderfyniad i adrodd yn ffurfiol gan ddefnyddio un o'r dulliau eraill uchod.
