April 2024
The Allied Health Professional (AHP) programme took place from 8 April 2024 and was attended by 11 A-level and BTEC students from a variety of local schools and Chesterfield College.
This programme was developed by a collective of AHPs to showcase a range of professions which provide acute services to both inpatients and outpatients in the Trust.
The week involved interactive classroom activities, time spent in practice shadowing on wards as well as clinics seeing a range of services and an important opportunity to hear a patients story first hand.
The students hugely enjoyed the experience and thanked everyone in the Trust who took part in the programme by giving up their valuable time to support a great opportunity for the individual students as well as the development of our future workforce.
We are pleased to announce the introduction of an exciting new programme for 2024 featuring our Allied Health Professions.
The programme includes a more rounded view of a range of services and showcases:
- Adult Speech and Language Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Paediatric Therapies
- Nutrition and Dietetics
- Physiotherapy
- Audiology
- Orthoptics
