    À propos du programme

    While getting medical work experience in Argentina, you’ll work in a hospital and also spend time in smaller community clinics.

    We can arrange extra work for university medical and healthcare elective students to meet all of your university’s requirements.  This includes meeting a set amount of clinical hours or working in a specific department.

    Here is what you can expect to do during your internship:

    • Shadow and learn directly from doctors and nurses
    • Attend medical lectures and workshops
    • Provide basic healthcare services and raise awareness during outreaches

    Your work will be split in three main areas:

    Observe doctors and nurses on their rounds

    You’ll accompany doctors and nurses on their rounds at the hospital. This is a great opportunity to learn directly from experienced medical professionals. We encourage you to ask questions and take notes about what you see.This will help you learn as much as possible about diseases and how doctors diagnose and treat them. You’re also likely to observe diseases and conditions you won’t find at home.  

    Attend medical lectures and workshops

    Medical workshops and lectures are run once a week at the Projects Abroad office by our medical coordinator or by a guest speaker. They will introduce you to the healthcare system in Argentina. They’ll also talk about common healthcare issues present within the country, such as diabetes, dengue fever, etc.

    These lectures can include a visit to the Anatomy Museum followed by a human dissection, run by local medical students. You’ll also have the opportunity to visit a local research centre to learn about a local disease native to Argentina called ‘Chagas’.

    Participate in community outreaches

    During your internship, you’ll get involved in medical outreach work in rural communities. These outreaches involve conducting basic health checks, administering medication, and treating minor wounds. Your work here is important, as many rural communities lack access to basic medical services. You’ll be supervised by qualified medical professionals every step of the way.

    Journée typique

    A typical work day at the hospital will consist of a 4-6 hour shift in the morning or afternoon. These shifts may be different depending on what department you’re working in. During your shift, you’ll shadow doctors and observe their interactions with patients.

    You’ll also be able to do ...

    A typical work day at the hospital will consist of a 4-6 hour shift in the morning or afternoon. These shifts may be different depending on what department you’re working in. During your shift, you’ll shadow doctors and observe their interactions with patients.

    You’ll also be able to do practical medical outreach work in rural communities. In Argentina, our focus is on raising awareness of diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This means that outreach work focuses on tasks like checking blood sugar and pressure levels.

    You will also attend lectures and workshops once a week to learn more about the country’s medical practice.

    During the hours you aren’t working, you’ll have ample free time to explore with your fellow interns, taking in Argentina’s rich cultural heritage and spectacular natural beauty.

    Since you will be living with a host family, breakfast or dinners offer great opportunities to get to know them and the local culture better.

    Activités de loisirs

    Argentina is a vibrant South American country bursting with colour and rich heritage. Along with contributing to worthwhile projects, a trip with us to Argentina means you can explore this fascinating country.

    Enjoying a coffee at the Plaza de San Martin, with its street performers and iconic statue of General Jose de San Martin, is the perfect way to spend an evening. It’s located in Cordoba, where our projects are based, so you don’t have to travel far for this experience.

    For thrill seekers, you can take a weekend trip to La Cumbre where you can go paragliding off lofty cliffs. The surrounding nature is breathtaking and a horse ride around nature trails here is well worth it.

    There are also enriching cultural experiences, like the Evita Fine Arts Museum or the Teatro del Libertador General San Martin. You can also learn more about the country’s history at local museums.

    There will likely be other volunteers in Argentina with you. So you can choose to explore solo, or with a group of volunteers from different projects.
