Although Barnsley Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is no longer
able to offer on-site work experience we do run an Introduction to Medicine
course 4 times per year. This is a 2 day course aimed at final year school
students and 6th form college students with a keen and genuine interest in a
medical career as a doctor or physician associate. The first day of the
course will be online covering things such as applying to medical school, life
of a junior doctor and life of a PA. The second day will take place in
person at Barnsley Hospital and will focus on practical clinical skills which
you will be able to participate in. Students who attend both days will
receive a letter of attendance for the course.
If you are interested in
attending the Introduction to Medicine day at Barnsley Hospital please can you
complete the below registration form and return this along with a reference
from your school/college or a professional (not related to you) who is
recommending you for the course to the Medical Education Team via email at bdg-tr.mededevents@nhs.net
and we will confirm your place on the next available session. Students
under 18 years of age will require a letter of consent from their
parent/guardian to confirm they can attend the hospital site.
This course is only for students who live or attend school within the Barnsley Borough
