I’m a Medic is an online outreach activity where school students interact with healthcare workers in the NHS. Students begin to identify with people working in the NHS, and can see how science and healthcare are relevant to their lives and future careers.
Students connect with the healthcare workers over fast-paced online text-based live CHATs. They ASK them anything they want, and VOTE for their favourite to win a prize of £500 to spend on further engagement to encourage more young people into careers in the NHS.

I’m a Medic is based on the long running I’m a Scientist project, where school students put their questions to real scientists online. The only difference? I’m a Medic will not be having evictions. Take a look at the video to see how the events work.
