Medical Internship in Morocco

What is the Medical Internship in Morocco all about?

During your placement, you will be placed at a private clinic, working predominantly with midwifery and surgical staff. Depending on your interest and background, you will be able to observe the medical staff as they perform routine checks, prenatal checks, births and postnatal related care to the mothers and infants. The clinic performs examinations, x-rays, and minor surgeries, depending on the nature of the issue. The placement will provide you with invaluable practical experience, local insights into the medical field and an opportunity for many inter-cultural exchanges with the local medical staff. 

Why choose this Medical Internship programme in Morocco?

This internship is suitable for anyone studying or recently graduated in the fields of medicine, midwifery and nursing. It is a great opportunity to experience the medical field in a limited resource country in the MENA region. You will meet local medical professionals, observe their work and practices, and learn about the Moroccan healthcare system within the context of private medical care. 

This project also gives you the opportunity to add on Arabic or French classes at an additional cost to improve your language skills. Please speak to your advisor if interested so this can be arranged in advance of your placement.

Role of the Healthcare Intern

You will have the opportunity to shadow local medical personnel and observe their work. Internships are available within a local private clinic, and relate to children’s and women’s health. Your internship will be arranged based on your skills and experience. You will be supervised by the medical staff at all times and will provide assistance and support as needed. Depending on your experience and the relationship you build with the local staff, you may be asked to be more hands-on as long as you are ready and competent. 

What skills do I need to be a Medical Intern?

Students with a background in medicine, midwifery and nursing are eligible for this internship. Commitment to the placement is essential to build a close relationship with the local staff. Some knowledge of French can be helpful but is not necessary as most of the medical staff speak English. Obviously, if you speak some Arabic and/or French, you will get the most out of your placement, but neither are a requirement.
