Exam Location

Hi everyone,

I'm just putting the feelers out for anyone based in the South West. The RSPH have been in touch to say that we could register to become an authorised exam location (we're based in Devon) and I was just curious as to whether there would be any uptake.

🙂

EDIT: As I'm sure you've all seen, the RSPH have now decided that after offering it to us, it will now no-longer be an option due to a miscommunication on their part.

Thank you I think both locations would be really helpful and closer than North Tees!!

Do you know which hospitals they are?

I’m not sure about the potential Norwich location, but I’m based at North Devon District Hospital (Barnstaple), although we’re linked to Royal Devon (Exeter) so there’s a chance they could nominate that one instead as it’s bigger.

Awesome that would be so much easier from W-S-M 👍

Definitely easier from southampton, did they give any indication of how long it would take to be approved? Do you think it would be in time for the first exam in March?

They did say it could only take a couple of weeks, so in theory, it could be, however, I only passed all this on to senior staff in my Trust today, so it’s difficult to tell how quickly it’ll all go through. Seeing that there’s interest, I’ll keep everyone posted.

FYI, if it’s of interest to anyone, I think Norwich are exploring it as a possibility, too…
