Health and Welfare Access Course

Hi I am currently attending an Health and Welfare course at NWRC as a pathway to occupational therapy or Physiotherapy I’m am interested in attending University of Ulster in 2022 I am a mature student any advice would be appreciated, or has anyone gone this route? Thank you

Hi
Thanks for your response, I am wondering if u felt the access course prepared you for the degree? Can I ask where u completed your degree? Would you know anyone who completed health and welfare access and went on to do Physiotherapy or occupational therapy, I am hoping to get into Magee university as I can’t travel any further, Thank you 🙏

The access course was really good for uni prep especially 12 years after my failed AS levels. We had about 15 assignments over the 1 year course and they are constant and relentless. Way more than you get a degree level (which increases in detail and critique), so if you can manage them well, it will set you up just fine for the uni workload. It broke me into essay writing and learning really well even when i was so nervous if i could manage before i started.

I did my degree at Uclan and I don't know anyone that did health and welfare access but Id say do what you will be interested in that gives you an 'in' to a physio degree. It sound like Health and wellness will prepare you well for that side of the physio profession, you will come across a lot of students that have no idea that physio is a health medical profession as they are focused on MSK sport injuries in private practice. hope that's ok

Hi you can message me if you want to I'm a mature student in NI and did access last year.

Hi, I’m hoping to do OT next year in Magee, how did you find the course? Did u go on to study this year? If so how did u find the process?
Thank you

Hi, sorry for the really random question! But i'm more than likely doing Health and Welfare next year at NWRC and I was just wondering how you are getting on? I'm a bit confused about the breakdown of the course etc, like what way does your timetable work? Sorry for all the questions, just looking to be a wee bit more prepared for education this time around! Thank you

Hi , The course is great, there is a lot of work involved but so far it is manageable. It is important not to miss classes as u could easily fall behind.The lectures are very supportive. We are in college 3 days Wednesday Thursday,Friday and at times we are online depending on the current pandemic. I hope this helps. Best of luck

This is amazing thank you so much! Hope it all goes well for you... One more question, what are your modules? Like how is your timetable structured? Thanks so much again.
