T Level in Health 2024

The Trust welcomed our first T Level Health students from Chesterfield College in June 2024 for their induction. The students will be returning in September for supervised practice placements on our wards. 

Comments from the induction evaluations were very positive and students enjoyed seeing a variety of basic nursing practices including taking observations, talking to and helping patients, assisting with meals, taking BMI, using the hoist, handover, drugs round.

A valuable part of the experience was developing soft skills such as communication and understanding how the Multi Disciplinary Team worked together.
