Located in the hospital’s Education Centre, the newly refurbished space is equipped with a PC suite, comfortable seating, lockers and a small kitchenette for all learners to utilise. The Student Hub will provide a comfortable and modern environment away from clinical areas for students to learn, creating a central hub for communication and support, with opportunities for peer-to-peer learning and independent study.
Designed with students in mind, the space is open 24/7 to all learners across a range of roles, including medicine, nursing, midwifery and allied healthcare professionals. The opening of the Student Hub is part of the Trust’s wider commitment to investing in education and training – fostering a supportive culture that places value in learning and professional development opportunities.
After officially unveiling the Hub, Suzy Brain England OBE, Chair of the Board, said: “We are delighted to announce the opening of our new Student Hub at Doncaster Royal Infirmary. This facility is an important addition to our Trust, providing a dedicated space for students to learn and develop their skills in a supportive and professional environment.”
Sam Debbage, Director of Education and Research at DBTH, said: “As a Teaching Hospital, we are committed to investing in our workforce and ensuring that our students receive the best possible education and training to thrive in their careers. The Student Hub is a key part of this commitment and we are excited to see the positive impact it will have on our students’ and colleagues’ learning experiences.”
