Whilst living on campus, she attended daily classes including a first aid course organised by Child Matters UK in which students learnt how to be first responders. The course was also composed of a detailed explanation of the main organ systems in health and disease. Students were also taught how to log a patient’s medical history and carry out simple procedures. A few words from Hannah ‘I can say that I gained excellent knowledge about what it is like to study medicine and work in the medical field.
