Description
The program is carried out at the health institutions which have been affiliated with us for a long time and are in the business of giving a wonderful time and experience because there is a lot to learn from them.
The interested applicants are placed with a supervisor since they got no experience in that field.
The hospital is divided in several departments where the participant's program are divided so that they can gain experience in the different fields at the hospital.
Nurses at the hospital are the busiest and that's where it is an advantage, because much is learned, experienced and attained.
The participants will get hands-on experience in handling the patients alongside the supervisor and will get to see lots as well as learn while doing basic procedures like wound dressing and others. More information will be provided upon applying.
Highlights
The program requires all participants to come with an open mind, because the experience is one of a kind compared to the hospitals in developed countries.
All participants are required to dress decently at the workplace, participants should wear long pants and decent tops or shirts. If you have white overall coats, or scrubs can be a great advantage.
Qualifications
The program is open to participants all over the world who are pursuing careers in the health services delivery. Participants who are pursuing nursing careers in the future are highly welcomed.
