Students on Tour 2026

"We were delighted to welcome our third-year student nurses on tour for a placement experience across primary care. During their time with us, students gained valuable clinical exposure within GP surgeries and specialist services, including wound clinics, alongside dedicated training days at The Hub Plus.

As part of their placement, students also led ‘health check’ events at RTC Business Centre and Alstom, carrying out observations such as manual blood pressure, pulse, oxygen saturations, weight, and blood glucose monitoring.

The experience provided an excellent opportunity for students to develop and practice their clinical skills, and all participants completed the placement with increased knowledge and confidence in primary care nursing - recognising it as a rewarding and viable career pathway for newly qualified nurses."
