Description
We offer our students to spend some time working as volunteers at one of the St. Petersburg hospitals. This is quite a usual and ordinary state hospital for people suffering from different diseases.
There are two main departments in the hospital: Therapy and Surgical.
According to our program, volunteers will help people staying at the Therapy department of the hospital. During the certain period of time volunteers will act as ordinary nurses and work hand-to-hand with the Russian personnel of the department. Together with their Russian colleagues our volunteers will do their best to bring sick people back to normal life.
This project is aimed at people willing not only to study the language but also to do something in order to experience life as it is. We offer you the unique opportunity of having highly intensive Russian Language course (4 or 8 weeks) followed by a month or more period of practical work.
