Are you studying medicine? Are you planning to study a subject related to healthcare? Or are you already working in the field? A placement with Proyecto Peru will give you a working experience unlike any you’ve gained so far. Peru is a different country, culture and society. The contrast between Western medical facilities and practice and those of the developing world is huge. This in itself contributes to your experience and knowledge.
Proyecto Peru offers placements in a medical clinic in Cusco, Peru. You will be part of a team and you will need a lot of initiative to do this placement. You will see all the aspects of working in a medical clinic in Peru. Depending on your experience and your Spanish level, you will be assisting the doctors in their daily work. The project runs all year round and is available for a minimum of 4 weeks.
Medical Spanish course
Proyecto Peru offers Spanish for medical purposes. The Medical Spanish course will give you a specialized vocabulary and you will develop your Spanish in many practical contexts. The course will prepare you for meeting patients who only speak Spanish and for talking with doctors and nurses. The Medical Spanish course is your perfect preparation for a medical placement in Peru.
The medical Spanish course is an individual course of 15 hours per week, 3 hours per day. The lessons are given in the mornings or afternoons. IT is possible to do a Medical Spanish course and working in a medical clinic at the same time. Contact us for the possibilities for groups of medical students.
