Student healthcare professionals to earn apprenticeship wage during placement.

What the petition asks

Student healthcare professionals are under the equivalent pressure that all registered NHS professionals are, if not more as they have to cope with living costs, studying and handling all of the stress that the NHS has to offer at the age of 18+. This could be student paramedics, nurses, doctors etc
Although students are not yet qualified they work just as hard and put in an immense amount of effort to gain their degree to practice. We take for granted the NHS and all those that work for it so let’s make a change and make it worthwhile and easier for those aspiring healthcare professionals.
