This Afternoon the DFN Project SEARCH Derby staff & interns have teamed up to prepare for the assessment of our next cohort! Jo is preparing herself for her first assessment day.

SKY It’s wonderful to see a smiley Sky at work, thanks to her awesome mentor, Ricky! Sky is preparing meals for patients as a Ward Host- she’s patient, kind, perceptive and caring- she has exactly what it takes to be the perfect employee. Placements aren’t easy; well done Sky!

HARRY He is one very proud @projectsearchhq intern on Reception at @uhdbtrust Harry has an awesome mentor who organised his wheelchair training which allows him to provide access to patients in and around the hospital. He is poised and ready to assist anyone and everyone!

🕺 They may be tired and ready for the weekend, but I still can’t help smiling- seeing them all in their uniforms! 🕺

✨It’s so moving watching a graduate of the programme become a mentor. 🏓 Table tennis club is part of the staff well-being programme at the Royal Derby Hospital 👥 Socialising is so important and I’m so proud of this pair! 🏆 I’ll let you guess who won…
