The NHS Virtual Allied Healthcare Work Experience offers a unique opportunity for aspiring healthcare students. It’s a unique opportunity for students to hear from our exceptional guest speaker, Melanie Dalby, a pharmacist with a wealth of knowledge and insights to share!
Melanie will provide invaluable career insights that will help students develop a deeper understanding about a career in healthcare. Following Melanie’s talk, students will gain an intimate look at the healthcare industry in the virtual NHS work experience, delving into diverse roles within allied healthcare and taking a closer look at patient care by following the journeys of two patients from incident through to treatment.
The NHS Allied Healthcare Work Experience is the largest programme for aspiring healthcare professionals, having successfully invited over 12,000 students to participate in its programme last academic year – many of which have gone on to study:
– Nursing
– Midwifery
– Paramedicine
– Physiotherapy
– Occupational Therapy
– Dietetics
– Radiography
– Prosthetics and Orthotics
– Speech and Language Therapy
– Pharmacy
Once registered, students will receive access to their virtual work experience portals. Better yet, every complete session comes with a Work Experience Certificate, and for those who complete the full 6-month programme, there’s a Highly Commended Reference – a fantastic addition for apprenticeship and UCAS applications.
Registration will start at 8:30am, with guest speaker Melanie from 9-10am, then the live work experience session starts at 10am and end at 5pm. Plenty of breaks are scheduled throughout the day.
Students can register 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, or £50 for the full 6 months:
