Midwifery Internship in Sri Lanka - Kandy Reviews

I learnt skills during my time on all three wards that university could never teach me.

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
