Like all of our nursing and medical internship programs abroad , this project in Argentina allows you to gain university credits while acquiring experience in the field and helping to guarantee the UN's goal of universal access to healthcare.
One of the problems encountered in the public sector in Argentina is the lack of personnel. Trainees who show commitment and dynamism will be able to come as reinforcements and provide valuable assistance to the permanent staff, thus allowing them to take the time necessary to provide patients with a satisfactory level of care. Interns will rotate each week in a different department.
Interns will work 5-7 hours a day in the clinic.
The trainees will be supervised and evaluated by the local staff of the NGO associated with this internship. The responsibilities and tasks given to the interns are entirely at the discretion of the local staff, and will vary according to the personality, skills and level of Spanish of the students.
Go to Argentina for an approved internship in the field of health. This nursing internship, or medical internship, contributes to the well-being of local communities by working towards the objective of access to care for all, set by the United Nations. The cross-cultural experiences offered encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and into a learning zone, broaden your view of the world, learn a new language, experience new emotions, enrich your perspective, change your habits, get to know other cultures, and go beyond your own limits.

Our partner NGO offers two options for volunteer accommodation:
- Youth hostel in downtown Córdoba: accommodation in a shared room (maximum 3 people per room) with access to the rooftop with barbecue and a fully equipped kitchen so that volunteers can prepare their meals. The hostel also has an internet connection and a bar.

For trainees who wish to stay in a shared room, only breakfast is included in their price.
Interns staying with host families will receive two meals a day (breakfast and dinner).
Interns can choose between a shared room (maximum 3 people per room) in a student residence or being placed with a host family with half board, for an immersive stay.
