Nursing Work Experience Abroad

Yes! At Projects Abroad, our first aim is to benefit the communities we work in. You can be assured that your Nursing Project is ethical, well supported, and part of a better future. All of our Medicine & Healthcare Projects are guided by a comprehensive code of conduct policy, as we take the safety of our volunteers, interns, and the people they work with very seriously. 

Our Projects are also structured in a way that you’ll still make a real impact, even if you’re only there for a short time. Our blog about short-term volunteering explains how we facilitate this.

Here are a few more elements of our work that set it apart from other overseas nursing placements:

Recording our work in a secure database

We created a Global Impact Database so we can track the positive impact our Projects have. This is a secure and anonymous database that we use to identify specific areas of need. It allows us to use data to shape medical outreaches and health awareness programmes. We can also monitor individuals we see often, report our results, and collect data for research. All of this work is guided by our Management Plans.

Real work with trained professionals

Through our volunteer nursing overseas programmes, you’ll work alongside real healthcare professionals. You can observe them in their everyday work, ask questions, and hear more about their experiences. You’re likely to get more insight into the frontline of medical care than in your home country.

A tailored approach

We’re often able to tailor your nursing placement to your interests. You can work in more than one department or focus on one particular area, or experience outreach work in the local community.
