Medical Services Training (MST) specialises in providing training for non medical staff working in a healthcare or healthcare related environment. We work with health insurance companies, social services and private healthcare providers together with non-clinical members of the NHS.
In addition to medical terminology, we also cover prescription medicines, summarising medical records, understanding test investigations, dental terminology, together with introductions to various conditions (oncology, cardiology, orthopaedics etc.)
Based in the UK we run courses throughout the country through a network of associate trainers. We often run in-house programmes for clients but also set up open (public) courses in various locations.
