Q: Is there an opportunity to take a placement? If so, will the university organise this?

Q: What does a placement/year look like?
A: A good mixture of Uni theory, placement blocks and leave. Also discussed on the CDYJ Podcast.
Q: What sort of student support provision is in place?
A: As well as lecturers ensuring that you are supported throughout your study, other student support is available, including support with academic writing, financial difficulties, mental health, and personal circumstances that may impact your study. The student union is often the first point of contact for support at university and are very good at accommodating your needs. Additionally, the ambulance trust actively ensure that you are supported throughout placement and there are people you can contact within the ambulance trust who can support you if needed. – Also discussed in the CDYJ podcast.
