why would you not go if it wasnt an nhs funded course?

Because i dont wanna be in debt when i leave uni. Also because of the interest invloved isnt allowed in Islam. But not alot of people know that

NHS careers pay works off banding so in fact a graduate going straight into any of those careers could expect to start on very similar salaries, they all start off at band 5 and this then goes up with increasing responsibilities and experience so really there wont be a major difference in any of them.
see here ( http://www.nhscareers.nhs.uk/explore-by-career/allied-health-professions/pay-and-benefits-for-ahp-staff/)

To pick one of them I d say decide what area you'd rather work in, for example hospital or community, which group of service users/ expertise would you like to work with women or children or would you like to work with bones or muscles or would you like to eyes or human nutrition?

Don't let pay be a deciding factor on which NHS course you study. If you truly want to study an NHS funded course, that's great, but really take time to consider it. Explore all the options and find out what interests you most. In terms of pay, most NHS careers are similar - as stated above - the pay rate depends on your band, and most graduates start out on band 5, so how much you want to get paid and when actually depends on how hard you work and how ambitious you are.

I started out studying Nursing, but 6 months into my course I realised it wasn't a career I saw myself in long term. Along the way I had gained serious interest in another NHS profession, and now, 2 years later, I'm starting a course in Diagnostic Radiography, starting next week. I know 110% that's where I want to be.

Really research your options, don't pick a random course and hope for the best. Good luck.

Optometry is not NHS funded

Here's one for your list; Operating Department Practitioner

If you haven't heard of it, essentially it It prepares you to become a operating department practitioner (ODP), working primarily within operating theatres as a surgical, anaesthetic or recovery practitioner, caring for patients through the perioperative journey, and ensuring the safe preparation of instruments and equipment.

It's NHS funded and very interesting.

Firstly thank you for everyones help.




I would like to work in the hospital for the most part but am just not sure in what particular department

Thankyou, i am really interested in helping people but just havent researched enough in the particular course i want to do. How did you know diagnostic radiography was the real thing you wanted?


This is news to me, lol so sad i really wish it were funded :/



That actually sounds intriguing i might look into it, do you know if you can do work experience in this department?

when applying for a NHS funded course, does it include accommodation too?

NHS courses and jobs are very intensive so its important to go into one of them because you are serious about it, not because you won't get into debt.
Dietetics is only NHS funded in some places. Paramedic Science is also NHS funded at some unis.
