When you think of different careers in healthcare you may automatically think of a doctor, nurse or paramedic. Did you know there is a group of healthcare professionals called Allied Healthcare Professionals (AHP) who support those with health issues affecting their day-to-day quality of life?

My name is Lene. I’m 20 years old and I’m German. Why did you choose to study at the ESO?

Every person is important and matters and you become a part of ..read more
