Hahaha. Thanks!

Hi Dragonfly123, Following on from the previous post, you are definitely not alone! I felt this way when I was a pwp. I recently got onto hi intensity training after 2.5 years as a pwp. I struggled at various points during my time as a pwp. I felt at times unsupported and overworked too. Hang in the...

Hi Dragonfly123

I found out I am unable to complete the course tax free as I work for a private company. It's only if you will be working for the NHS as far as I know. I completed my PWP training May 2015 so I started May 2014.

Hi all, I have been offered a high intensity training position, however, I was wondering if this course/role is tax free? I recently put in a WATS claim from when I did my PWP course and received a pretty big rebate back from my previous trust. However, I wanted to double check if this is the case w...

Hi all :) I have an interview in January for a hi post in Hellingly. It'll be my first time being interviewed for a hi post, what am I likely to expect? I have my KSA completed and have been reading research articles too. Does anybody on this forum work for or know anyone that works for Sussex Partn...

Hi, I've been offered an interview for a Hi Trainee post in Cumbria. I was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on what to expect? I've been told a lot of different things, I just kind of want to know the usual questions asked, if possible. Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks,...

Our service will treat health anxiety at Step 2... Luckily we don't get that many of them! :/

As someone else said in an earlier post, it is pretty much the same as Trainee PWP but without attending university. I had experience for 6 months in 2013 as an Assistant PWP. I was pretty much thrown in at the deep end, so were the others. I initially completed assessments and did reception type du...

I'm interested to know also what service you'll be working for a trainee? best of luck with it!

I contacted HR in my previous service I did my PWP training and I'm due a refund for national insurance contributions and tax apparently. They didn't have my correct address, so I should have received this cheque by now! I worked for SABP in Walton on Thames, so if you need a contact for HR please m...

Same here (as above).

I trained in 2014-2015 as a PWP. Would I be eligible for a refund do you think? Was either of you successful in getting one?

Many thanks

I'm currently putting my KSA together (sort of) and was wondering about criteria 9 Comprehension of Research (below). Demonstrate critical skills in reading, analysing and discussing published research studies, understanding of the implications of research and its application in the development of k...

Thank you Pangirl1984 I know what you mean regarding risk! That question is always asked. I'm trying to do a bit of research, but not a lot available online. Thank you again!

I was wondering if anybody had any advice regarding Senior PWP posts? I am due to be interviewed within my current Trust for a senior position as my supervisor is going off on maternity leave soon. I'm due to be interviewed on May 9th and I wondered if anyone had any advice/tips? If anyone has had e...

I second PanGirl1984. I applied for qualified positions whilst still a trainee. I had to work as a trainee until my results came through. As I received some information to say I'd passed the course, the service I was working for needed proper proof from the university. I had to contact them and they...
