We are excited to inform you about an exciting upcoming Healthcare Careers Event for Year 10 students, which will provide them with valuable insights into various healthcare professions and careers. The event will feature a diverse roster of healthcare professionals, each representing a different discipline within the medical field. Professionals from social care, medicine, occupational therapy, nursing, and physiotherapy will also be in attendance.
