Sites are used all over the region in NHS Trusts and private hospitals. You may have consecutive placements in Scarborough, Rotherham and Durham. There are a very limited number of placements available in some specialities and you will not normally have any choice in where you are placed. You should be prepared to be away from home during the week. We recognise that there may be times when individuals have particular difficulties and try to meet specific requests, whenever it is possible.
Bursaries are available to graduates from other disciplines.
If you cannot travel daily to a placement, accommodation is provided in either local B and B guesthouses or within the hospital. At the present time, the University pays for the cost of the accommodation. The School offers postgraduate courses at Certificate and full Master's level. Students must be successful in both theoretical and clinical assessments in order to progress. Successful completion enables State Registration and full membership of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy.
