Work Experience & Clinical Placements

Unfortunately due to our current position, we have made the difficult decision to put all work placements that are not already part of the agreed student training plan with Manx Care on hold until further notice.  This includes Hospice Summer School 2026.

If you would like to support Hospice Isle of Man, you can do so in various ways by volunteering, fundraising, attending one of our events and more.  Full details can be found here: Supporting Us

Work Experience - on hold

We're happy to welcome work experience placements from the Island's secondary schools. If you are interested in a work placement, please send your request via your school. Each placement will be for a period of 1 working week (working hours 10:00 - 16:00)

Work Placement Areas

We currently offer work placements in the following 3 areas:

• Estates and Garden
• Catering
• Income Generation (Marketing & Fundraising) 

Every successful candidate will need to:

• Visit hospice a few weeks before the placement starts so we can show you around
• Fill in some paperwork - so please allow time for that
• Meet the team you will be working with

Many students choose to continue volunteering for the hospice after their work experience, if you would like to do this please speak to the volunteer team at the end of your placement.

Clinical Placements - on hold

Education and professional development is a big part of our strategy and using our experience and expertise to develop others is fundamental to our work.

We aim to be not only the leader in delivering palliative and end of life care but also the driving force behind the training and education that will enable hospice influenced care to be provided throughout our community.

As such, we offer clinical work placements and development opportunities.  For clinical placements you must be aged 17 and above.
