Will this be mainly learning and gaining skills to become a dental nurse or Im i going to be expected to fight and be in the front lines of the army because thats whats really putting me off from applying.
Your training will cosist of basic training which you will learn about soldiering skills. You will then move onto trade training which will qualify you as a dental nurse unless already qualified in which case the route is slightly different you will then do a transition to military practice course to cover the differences between civilian and military healthcare.
Once at your unit you will do your job as a dental nurse and only work within that role you will still be expected to keep up to date with your soldiering skills but this is so you can defend yourself should the worst was to happen but you would not be expected to be on the front lines with infantry within this job role.
