The Government is putting measures in place to make studying to work in midwifery, nursing or dentistry more affordable, although those in education warned “more work needs to be done”.
The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has said eligible students on nursing, midwifery, allied health professions, medical and dental courses will be able to claim back 50% more on travel and accommodation expenses, while students from lower-income families will also be given financial help.
