Gino Parisi, Person Centred Care and Partnerships Manager at ABUHB, explained that as a health board, ABUHB always strives to support their local community. He said; 鈥淲e鈥檙e really happy that we鈥檝e been able to develop this partnership with 91香蕉视频 and Elite, allowing these interns to gain valuable real-life work experience with our Facilities team at Nevill Hall Hospital in Abergavenny. We welcome the interns into the health board and look forward in supporting them, and thank them for supporting us in the services that we deliver. I鈥檓 sure they鈥檒l become very valuable team members鈥.

The Engage to Change Gwent supported internships will take place over the course of an academic year, giving our ILS students time to develop their skills over a longer period and prepare them for the world of work. The interns will go on rotation to experience different areas of the hospital during their work placement, providing them with a well-rounded experience of working in a health care environment and an opportunity to learn a range of new skills. This internship experience may even offer learners a chance to apply for a job with Aneurin Bevan University Health Board afterwards. At the end of the internship, all learners taking part in the scheme will have learnt and developed a fantastic range of skills to use in the workplace, which they can transfer to other jobs and work settings in the future.

To get involved in the Engage to Change Gwent supported internship scheme, ILS learners simply need to contact their Head of School to express their interest. For all other learners at 91香蕉视频, our Enterprise and Employability team is on hand to help you find suitable local work experience opportunities and help you progress towards your individual career goals.
