Clinical experience blocks are positioned in the yearly timetable to fit around when specific topics are being taught within the curriculum. Here you will gain the opportunity to put into practice the theoretical knowledge you have gained through study. The radiography courses at the University of Hertfordshire are supported by over 30 affiliated hospital sites located in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, London, East Midlands and South Central regions.
You will be allocated a base NHS trust for the duration of the course where you will undertake practice placements and there will also be opportunities for elective placement to more specialist facilities to allow every student to gain experience of a wide range of injuries and pathologies, whilst meeting the needs of diverse patient types.
Some hospitals may be within commuting distance for you, but you may also be allocated a hospital that will require you to move to on-site accommodation. Students will be supported during clinical placements by their personal tutor who will regularly visit their hospital site. All our affiliated hospitals have an experienced member of staff who will coordinate your hospital placements and act as a link to the university to ensure students can achieve their placement learning outcomes.
Khan says his ambition to work in London and move out of his hometown in Cardiff was a key factor in choosing to study at the University of Hertfordshire. However, his course also provided a unique combination of theoretical and practical study which Khan says, 'prepared me to put my knowledge into practice while out on placement each term.
The course also gave me a glimpse of future opportunities for paramedics such as teaching, management and advanced practice. The vocational nature of the degree enabled him to transition smoothly into his chosen career providing him with the essential professional skills and hands on experience he required to excel as a paramedic. He says, 'The course gives you the knowledge to make lifesaving decisions but also gives you more advanced knowledge regarding complicated conditions and the various medicines that come with each patient.
Khan speaks fondly of his time at the University and says, 'I truly miss everyone I became friends with on my degree. Some of the nights out in the Forum were the best I've ever had and they will be everlasting memories, with friends both on and off of my course.
I really came out of my shell and comfort zone and it has made me into the confident and outgoing person I am today. Khan says that being a paramedic is the 'best job in the World' and, although he has just started his career, he hopes to go onto postgraduate study and experience new cultures by travelling.
