This episode of the Take Your Apprenticeship podcast is the sixth in our series focusing on apprenticeship opportunities in healthcare in the East of England.

It features a conversation with Rae who is currently undertaking an Apprentice Nursing degree at the West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust as well as working as an assistant practitioner in A&E.

Our HE Champion Rupert Mountjoy interviewed Rae remotely during August 2020 and they covered some of the following areas:

• How she found the application and interview process.

• How her experience working in A&E informed her choice to study a Nursing Degree Apprenticeship.

• The type of work she gets up to in a typical week.

• How the Covid-19 pandemic has affected her job.
