Undergraduate Induction Video
On the first day of your Block or Rotation, usually, you will be required to attend an Undergraduate Trust induction in the Education Centre.
The Undergraduate Medical Education team will contact you to confirm how and where your induction will be delivered and send you the induction programme and all other relevant information required.
In the meantime, we've put together an induction/ orientation video of Medway Hospital which you may find helpful to familiarise yourself with the hospital site
We look forward to welcoming you to Medway for your education and training with us.

-
A kitchenette with microwave and fridge

A comfortable sofa area for relaxation and socialising
Whether you need a quiet place to study, prepare a meal, or take a well-earned break, the Student Common Room provides a welcoming space to support your learning and wellbeing.
Medway Fitness Hub
Our staff gym was created to support the wellbeing of our colleagues. It was inspired by 100-year-old Captain Sir Tom Moore, who raised millions of pounds for the NHS by walking laps around his garden during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We are grateful that this wonderful facility was made possible with funding from Medway NHS Foundation Trust, The Medway Hospital Charity and NHS Charities Together, with additional contributions from UNISON and the Medway Labour and Co-operative Group.

Library
The Trust Library and Knowledge Service offers a professional information service to all Medway NHS Foundation Trust staff, students on placement at the hospital, and other NHS staff working across the Medway health economy.
