Healthcare/Medical Program in Argentina

This important program supports the provision of essential medical treatment in Buenos Aires. Volunteers and interns are paired with a full-time doctor or nurse they shadow on daily rounds. Intern responsibilities vary based on qualifications, experience, and comfort level. However, it is important to note that interns, even those fully qualified, are not permitted to practice in Argentina. They only shadow and observe and are given minor tasks within their skill set. A supervising staff carefully monitors every aspect of this program, but it still offers valuable insight into Argentina's healthcare system. It also facilitates a shared learning experience across international boundaries, an essential opportunity for medical students.
