Healthwatch Rochdale work in partnership with Hopwood Hall media students to raise awareness of the Healthwatch Service
The video was filmed at various locations across the borough including Heywood Phoenix Centre, Rochdale Infirmary, Rosemary Care Home and Heywood Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group (HMR CCG) Governing Body. The locations chosen for the video were all places associated with the work of Healthwatch and the film includes the manager of Rosemary Care Home speaking about their experience of an Enter and View visit and why a volunteer chooses to volunteer with Healthwatch.
Producing the video enabled students to gain valuable experience of working with a professional organisation and producing work according to an organisation’s requirements. The production of the video was assessed by Hopwood Hall tutors and made up part of the student’s final graded score.
We are really proud to have worked in partnership with the Hopwood Hall media students helping students to develop skills and gain experience of working with a professional organisation. We are sure this experience will be beneficial to them as they go forward either into the world of work or further education. We are hoping to work in partnership with Hopwood Hall College again in the future and have already identified areas of future partnership working
