Healthcare Experience Programme
Yeovil District Hospital offers a scheduled programme of visits to a variety of patient facing environments within the Acute hospital setting, providing insight into a range of career possibilities and enabling discussion between staff, patients and learners. By rotating around the hospital areas throughout the working week, a learner can develop a better understanding of the different roleswithin the hospital, and how they may study and work within their local NHS and remain in the local area. Having access to the various areas and healthcare professionals willhelp individuals to identify their future NHS role and commence their placement journey.
This scheduled programme provides the following benefits:
- Increased awareness of the different roles within the health care environment amongst 16-24 year olds
- Supports young people to make informed decisions about their career pathways
- Contributes to achievement of Gatsby Benchmarks by local education providers: “Encounters with employers & employees” and “Experiences of work places”.
- Contributes to experience of a health care setting for employment and HE applications
- Provides insight into the different aspects of care provided within a multi-disciplinary team
