BSc in Nursing

Our project in Bali allows you to carry out your medical internship in an association abroad, within our partner NGO. While contributing to the achievement of the United Nations’ goal of access to health care for all, gain university credits while contributing your knowledge. Benefit from training by health professionals, and discover a rich culture through an immersive experience.
In Indonesia, some rural areas are often very far from health facilities such as hospitals or clinics. In collaboration with our local partner, we have developed two very different programs to provide students with a unique insight into the Indonesian healthcare system.
Like all of our nursing and medical internship programs abroad, this project in Bali allows students to gain university credits while acquiring field experience, while contributing to the UN’s goal of universal access to healthcare.

This medical internship will take place in one or more of the local hospitals partnered with the association of this medical internship, and in villages where medical care is not easily accessible or is too expensive. Interns will assist local doctors or nurses in their daily activities and in emergency situations help out in the hospital. Occasionally, you can join the local doctors who visit the villages to perform free medical examinations.
The first week of your internship consists of an introduction to the local culture, customs and do’s and don’ts. Not only will you learn some of the language and the way of life, but you will also visit the city and learn how to get around by yourself.
On Thursday and Friday of the first week, you will receive an introductory session at the university prior to the internship. During these sessions, a professional supervisor will brief you on the local situation and developments in the industry/field in which the internship will take place and prepare you for the local work environment/culture.
From the second week, you will work Monday to Friday at the medical internship association. A daily schedule will be set up to show you the different departments where you will work during your internship.
The project of prevention and health education in schools in the Ubud region will give you the opportunity to meet children in rural schools and teach them the importance of first aid and hygiene from an early age. Home visits will also allow you to participate in the care of the local community, a truly immersive experience!
In Bali, the medical program will allow you to assist local caregivers in a local hospital and learn more about your future profession in a foreign environment. On occasion, you will accompany local doctors and nurses to perform examinations and care in rural areas.

Our partner NGO offers a secure environment and a local team that takes care of the volunteers and manages all the logistics on their projects.
Since 1998, they have been offering the opportunity to participate in solidarity programs ranging from education to support and development of local communities, as well as wildlife and environmental conservation.
Their values: we are not passive spectators, but we encourage a practical approach, “we get our hands dirty”. The placements require active participation of the interns and real commitment. The feedback from our participants is unanimous: “an enrichment beyond my expectations”, “a project that changed my life”.
