Biomedical Science Internship in Sri Lanka - Kandy Reviews

During the four weeks I tried surfing, white water rafting, safari in a national park

Culture was also evident in the day to day running of the general hospital, as although there are similarities between UK nursing and Sri Lankan nursing there were also differences. For example, instead of just doing IV’s for your patients, you had one nurse doing all of the IV’s.

From my time in Kandy I really got to see the role of the Sri Lankan nurse in comparison to the UK.

It was an incredible experience both as an elective placement and as a life experience

Many of the dentists were very interested in comparing my knowledge and techniques with theirs and learning about all the new technologies that we have now, such as light-cure composite!
