We offer a variety of in-patient acute rotations across the following areas:

The rotation receives excellent feedback from our current Band 6's such as:
'The rotation offers a highly valuable experience to develop clinical skills with exposure to complex patients'
'Encouragement was given to take time for different parts of the role e.g. service development, training, teaching others, own wellbeing.'
