Applied learningWork placementsOn this course you’ll be given opportunities across a range of clinical settings. After your first year you’ll rotate to a different Trust, and then return to the first Trust in your third year. You’ll work both in hospitals and out in the community, with our placement partners there to support you at every step. As part of your clinical practice, you’ll be allocated a small group of expectant mothers as part of your caseload.

In your second year, you’ll also have the option of choosing a module that allows you to work nationally or internationally.
