Could you help train the healthcare professionals of the future?
Newcastle University School of Medicine trains a range of students who will work within our NHS. Our students will become doctors, physician associates and clinical scientists.
The Patients as Partners in Healthcare Education service aims to involve patients and volunteers from across our region. Working with patients and volunteers is a hugely valuable part of our student’s training that helps them to develop excellent communication and examination skills as well as developing their bedside manner
We want to hear from people with lived experience of healthcare or interested volunteers who feel they could support our student’s to develop these important skills.

We are deeply saddened to hear the tragic news emerging from Kent regarding meningitis.

While meningitis infections are rare, they can be devastating. Our thoughts are with those affected and their families.

It’s important to remember that this outbreak is currently localised to the Canterbury area.
People across the North East should not panic, but staying informed is always the best approach.

If you have any concerns, our pharmacy team is always here to help.
