The next NHS Allied Healthcare Work Experience session is on Sunday 1st December. It’s a fantastic opportunity for students in years 10/S3/NI11 through to 13/S6/NI14 who are considering a career in healthcare.
At the start of the session, attendees will engage with this month’s guest speaker, who will provide a rare chance to glean insights from a seasoned AHP professional. They will then delve into the pivotal aspects of Paediatric Pathways.
Following our guest speaker’s insightful talk, students will be guided through various allied health careers by exploring the journeys of two patients from initial presentation to full recovery. Students will gain invaluable perspectives on patient care dynamics and the collaborative efforts within the NHS, including exploring careers within:
– Nursing
– Midwifery
– Paramedicine
– Physiotherapy
– Occupational Therapy
– Dietetics
– Radiography
– Prosthetics and Orthotics
– Speech and Language Therapy
– Pharmacy
Attendees will have the opportunity to 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 6-month programme will be awarded a Highly Commended Reference from the Presidents of Allied Healthcare Mentor. These are fantastic additions to student’s CVs!
Students can register individually at any time throughout the 6-month programme using the link below. We recommend booking early to gain as much out of this programme as possible. Places are £10 a session to cover administrative and technological costs.
