It was absolutely amazing experience, would strongly recommend everyone to do the placement.
I was very interested in going into Medicine, and felt that the more experience I gained during my childhood would allow me to have greater opportunities for places on good University courses later on in life. I really enjoyed the experience, and really developed my communication skills with the nurses, doctors, porters and patients. You really learn to appreciate how the whole system works, and this definitely allows you to appreciate how lucky we are in this country to have a health service like we do.
I really enjoyed my placement, I was given a variety of tasks to complete during the 9 months which allowed me to develop my skill set. I enjoyed going to work everyday and meeting new people, everyone was very happy to help and worked as a team. The team offered advice about options post graduation and what I should consider.
I have loved my placement year with NHS England, the work has been very varied, interesting and challenging at times. I have also been given the responsibility to manage and influence the direction of my own projects that have been used in high level reports and discussed in board meetings.
Immense experience, with a holistic view over the majority of a hospital environment, really helped develop my sense of appreciation of every aspect of healthcare. Additionally, greatly aided my insight into what specific paths I would want to follow in healthcare.
The placement was very useful in giving me an insight as to what goes on there. I was allowed to view a variety of things at the placement like surgery which I thoroughly enjoyed.

I really enjoyed my time working in the NHS. The placement required me to work long hours but i was given adequate breaks and the changing environment meant that it was difficult to ever get bored.
Thoroughly enjoyed the placement, organised very well.
it was good
Really interesting but couldn't always watch interesting stuff (understandably!) otherwise would have been full marks.
