Medical and Health Care Internships

Buenos Aires offers an array of clinical and research opportunities for medical and health care interns. Medical and health care interns will not only be able to understand the unique medical challenges that Latin America faces, but also become involved with current Argentinian medical practices.

Pre-med and nursing students will have opportunities at large, state-funded and private hospitals and work on daily basis with doctors and nurses, learning about protocols, medical equipment and procedures and interacting with patients. Projects can range from research-based to observation of the latest medical treatments and may include having the opportunity to attend relevant lectures alongside Argentinian medical students.

We can also find medical internship opportunities at small clinics and foundations that focus on research and treatment of patients with various conditions such as cancer, HIV, neurological disorders and autoimmune disorders. Projects in smaller medical facilities might include doing clinical research projects, patient interviews, and helping patients with physical therapy and occupational therapy exercises.

Previous medical and health care intern activities have involved examining x-rays, symptoms and biological processes, attending to wards, collaborating in public health campaigns, providing primary assistance to patients and even helping in the delivery room! Our Buenos Aires medical and health care internships will be designed in consultation with you and the organization, to deliver a unique set of benefits and learning opportunities for all parties involved.
