Your family away from home.
- Struggling with something at Uni?
- Difficult housemates or exhausting relationships?
- Need a hug or shoulder to cry on?
Help is available.
We all go through some common challenges as medical students living away from home. The Medical School and Student Union provide extensive student welfare support – from serious exam anxieties to more mundane issues (e.g. running out of condoms!)
Medic Families
Over two hundred Phase 1 and 2 students join our family system each year.
You’ll have been grouped up with “siblings” and a pair of senior medic “parents”, who’ll befriend and mentor the you. From academic advice to providing a listening ear and all welfare matters in between, MedSoc’s families are the nucleus of the strong Sheffield medic community.
Give us a bell.
Email welfare@medsoc.net or contact James via Facebook Messenger for any Welfare-related matters.
