“Dental nursing is a great profession where you can do something fulfilling and worthwhile, and it’s also a career that you can build on at the same time,” says Joanne Whiteoak, a newly qualified dental nurse who has just graduated from the Genix Healthcare Apprenticeship Program.
The £250,000 project was first launched in 2011, and through the program Genix Healthcare aims to provide aspiring dental professionals with high-quality training and opportunity for employment.
For Joanne, the prospects she’s received from Genix Healthcare are invaluable, with many avenues for growth in the dental nursing profession. “There are so many different qualifications you can add on, and so many routes you can go down – you can go on to become a practice manager, for example, or a dental hygienist or therapist,” Joanne says. “Dental nursing is definitely a good start for someone who’s interested in learning and working their way up.”
Genix Healthcare plans for the apprenticeship scheme to be ongoing, with recruitment for more apprentices happening soon.
Just recently, the company also sponsored the Yorkshire and the Humber regional heat of the National Apprenticeship Awards 2013, further showing Genix Healthcare’s support for young professionals nationwide.
