Nursing

Introduction

Nursing/Midwifery students

The Practice Placement Facilitators are here to support you whilst you are on placement. If you have any questions or concerns then please ring us to arrange an appointment or come along to one of the support surgeries. They are advertised within the Trust and on HYMS Blackboard.

Accessing Nursing and Midwifery Education

Working in partnership with Hull University and the Workforce Development Confederation, nurse training and development is sourced, provided and in most cases funded. If you are interested in accessing Nursing and Midwifery education but unsure of how to go about it, please contact us. We can give you information on entry requirements, how to apply and what the programme entails.

Return to Practice Students

If your registration as an Adult Nurse has lapsed and you would like to reinstate your registration, then the trust would like to talk to you. The Trust currently works in partnership with Hull University on the Return to Practice Programme. The Trust facilitates the placements on all 3 sites and the University facilitates the programme. For further details, please contact Jim Mercer, Hull University on (01482) 464685 or j.m.mercer@hull.ac.uk. For an informal chat about returning to practice, please contact us. There is an interview selection process to go through before you will be accepted onto the programme.
