Occupational Therapy Internship in Morocco

What is the Occupational Therapy Internship in Morocco all about?

During your placement, you will be placed at a local hospital where you will shadow and assist healthcare staff with various tasks. You will be working with children of varying ages, many of whom are suffering from different types of blood cancer and require everyday assistance to perform physical tasks such as changing, bathing or walking. You will learn more about the techniques used to make these tasks more manageable, the type of equipment used, and gain valuable, hands-on experience.
