Homerton Healthcare’s Work Experience Programme

Work experience is a short-term placement where students from schools, colleges, and Sixth Form (ages 14 to 18 only) can experience what employment would be like in a certain organisation or sector. Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust recognises that work experience can be extremely beneficial to students, enabling them to understand the world of health & social care and to comprehend the nature of the NHS.
