Work Experience
Princess Alexandra Hospital has always had a reputation for being at the
forefront when it comes to giving young people a helping hand on the road to a
career in the NHS.
The Trust is committed to offering work experience placements to young people and this academic year there have been over 100 placements in wards and departments throughout the hospital. None of this would be possible of course without the dedication and commitment of staff working in these areas and a very big thank you goes out to all departments and staff who have helped and continue to contribute to the success of the programme.
The Trust offers two main types of work experience. The first is the General Work Experience programme offering placements of up to 1 week in the following areas:
Please note all general work experience placements are now full for the current academic year and no further applications can be taken before September 2013
The second is the Medical Shadowing Programme, a week long programme aimed at 17-18 year olds who are applying to medical school. The programme will include shadowing Doctors and Consultants in the following areas:
To apply for one of the block work experience placements or a medical shadowing placement please contact Karen Kingsmill via e-mail: Karen.Kingsmill@pah.nhs.uk.
NB: Due to the high volume of applicants for a very limited number of work experience and medical shadowing placements priority is given to applicants from Harlow and the surrounding areas served by the Trust.
