There is a mix of students from both our Full-Time and Part-Time courses.

The students more advanced in their studies also act as Clinical Educators for the less experienced students.

The best way to learn is to teach.

The students are all volunteers who see the value in up-skilling themselves in a state-of-the-art clinic at the Manchester Institute of Health and Performance.

Rachel describes her experience at the MIHP

              

I volunteered for the MIHP Clinic from September to mid-October. 

It was such a useful experience- Dale and Ray supported us with teaching sessions before the service users came to the clinic, so you felt assured before you went in that you would be able to manage the patient.

Dale and Ray were also just outside if you needed any advice or weren’t sure of something. 

We learnt so many transferable skills on manual handling and exercise prescription, and also some treatment techniques that we wouldn’t see in University such as Acupuncture and Myo-fascial release. 

It was really lovely to see yourself having a positive impact on someone else’s life and made me more confident as a health professional.

Aine describes her experience at the MIHP

                       

Aine’s feedback

"I had a brilliant experience volunteering at the MIHP."

During the six weeks my practical and communication skills improved no end, and I also I grew in confidence.

It was great being able to put the theory we learned in University into practice on real patients while also having a lecturer there to support us if we had any problems.

During the six weeks we were also learned how to use some very specialist equipment such as Compex which I might never have get the opportunity to use otherwise.

I would highly recommend the MIHP to any student looking to improve their skills and knowledge.

Azima describes her experience at the MIHP
