    Über das Programm

    We have a number of medical placements in Peru for you to intern at. You can work in hospitals, healthcare centers, children’s rehabilitation centers, or private health clinics. 

    Your work will be split into three main areas:

    Observation

    Shadow doctors, nurses, and other medical staff during their day-to-day activities. Listen and learn as doctors diagnose patients and observe the way they treat them. You’ll also see nurses cleaning wounds, doing stitching, and giving injections.

    Rotating between hospital departments

    We give you the opportunity to watch procedures within a number of departments. Broaden your knowledge by spending time in departments like general medicine, gynecology, obstetrics, and pharmacy. If you work at the children’s rehabilitation center, you will gain experience in pediatric treatment as well.

    Outreach work

    Outreach work takes place separately from your normal hospital work. You’ll visit underprivileged communities with a supervisor, to provide basic healthcare and educational information to those who cannot access these services otherwise. You’ll raise awareness of disease and preventative measures, so the communities you visit can lead healthier lives.

    A typical day in Peru will start with you travelling to work bright and early. Once there, your role will be mainly observational, so you will spend the majority of your time watching skilled doctors and medical staff at work.

    Tagesablauf

    A typical day in Peru will start with you travelling to work bright and early. Once there, your role will be mainly observational, so you will spend the majority of your time watching skilled doctors and medical staff at work.

    See how staff clean wounds, put in stitches, give injections, treat children at the rehabilitation centre, and do many other practical tasks. Doctors will happily share their knowledge and advice, and welcome any questions you might have.

    Work hours vary depending on where you are placed. At the hospital and healthcare centre, mornings are generally busier than afternoons. Your afternoons are therefore likely to be spent doing more administrative tasks and helping with bedside care.

    At the private clinic, you will arrive at 8 am, accompany doctors while they visit patients from 8:30 am-11:00 am, and then help doctors and nurses with patient care from 11:00 am-1:00 pm.

    You will have less contact with doctors if you work at the children’s rehabilitation centre. If you choose this medical internship placement, you will spend afternoons at various childcare facilities around the city to assist with educational and developmental work.

    During your weekends you can explore the amazing city of Cusco, or venture out into the surrounding landscapes to marvel at the natural beauty, observing llamas in their natural habitat.

    Peru is a vibrant country with a mix of activities for every kind of volunteer. Whether you’re into arts, culture, history, or nature, there’s sure to be something for you!

    One of the biggest attractions of Peru is the Inca history. There are awe-inspiring archaeological sites like Coricancha, Tambomachay, and of course, Machu Picchu.

    Over a weekend, you can take a trip to the village of Pisac, where you can browse bright, eye-catching textile markets. Don’t miss out on seeing the llamas and alpacas too!

    There are also lively restaurants, the perfect place to spend an evening relaxing and enjoying local cuisine, like ceviche.

    We run a variety of projects in Peru so you’ll likely meet many other volunteers on your trip. It’s the perfect opportunity to connect and travel as a group. However, you’re welcome to travel independently if you prefer.
