NHS Allied Healthcare virtual work experience - 7 May 2023
Students in all year groups still have time to enrol on the next NHS Allied Healthcare Virtual Work Experience session! This is a fantastic opportunity for students to build a strong portfolio of healthcare experience and gain insight into the NHS interdisciplinary team. No previous experience is necessary!
During the work experience day, students will follow 2 patients from their initial presentation to recovery. They will gain a unique insight into how patients interact with a variety of healthcare professionals and what it’s like to work in an NHS multidisciplinary team. This includes:
- Nursing
- Midwifery
- Paramedicine
- Physiotherapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Dietetics
- Radiography
- Prosthetics and Orthotics
- Speech and Language Therapy
- Pharmacy
Attendees will interact with healthcare professionals throughout each day. This will empower students to make informed career decisions and demonstrate their commitment to healthcare in their UCAS applications. Once they’ve registered, students will be emailed links to their virtual work experience portals.
Students are awarded a Work Experience Certificate for every session they complete. Those who complete the full 5-month programme will be awarded a Highly Commended Reference from the Presidents of Allied Healthcare Mentor. These are fantastic additions to their CVs and UCAS applications! Places are £10 a session to cover administrative and technological costs.
