If your students don't have the time to complete all 6 months before your UCAS application deadline, don't worry! They can still enrol on each individual session. The next session, on Sunday 6th August is on Pain Management and Mental Health. They will follow two patients: Anita and Yasmin.
Anita is a 70-year-old woman who had an osteoporotic crush fracture to her T6 about 6 weeks ago. Consulting her GP on ongoing pain, we will follow Anita's journey with physiotherapists, neurologists, nurses, speech and language therapists, and dieticians.
Yasmin, in her 30s, has been suffering from an acute manic episode over the last 3 weeks. We will see how she is treated by paramedics, mental health nurses, and occupational therapists.
The NHS multidisciplinary team has a very distinct way of operating, so this is a rare opportunity for your students to gain insight into how they work within their careers and across healthcare departments.
We look forward to seeing your students on Sunday 6th August! When they complete the Allied Healthcare Work Experience programme, they will be awarded a certificate to add to their UCAS application!
Places are £10 a session to cover administrative and technological costs.
