Is there any way to a 5-day placement with a medical officer?

Anonymous asked a question to Tori C.

I am 17 and in year 12 (lower sixth) and was wondering if there was any way that I could conduct my 5-day work experience in May with some sort of medical officer, such as shadowing their role - is something like that possible?

    Hello, 

    I'm afraid placements with Military Medical Officers are difficult due to the security clearance required. 

    It is worth exploring either with local GP practices, or hospitals, to see if they offer shadowing opportunities. 

    Sorry I can't offer more help!
