About This Project

In February 2022, two trainees from Belgium,  arrived in Seville to carry out a 4-weeks long internship as nurses in Clínica HLA Santa Isabel. Trainees get an opportunity to practice with professional tutors and learn new information about their jobs, also they were lucky to live in other culture and discover other cities in Andalucia.

 

 

Trainees were providing patient care. Providing treatment and medications to patients, under the supervision of physicians. Preparing patients for medical examinations. Giving injections. Handling patient records and documentation. Grooming patients who are unable to clean themselves, with the assistance of qualified auxiliary health personnel. Preparing the necessary material to carry out the cures. Collecting thermometric data from each patient.

 

 

During their stay in Seville, the trainees not only developed their work skills but also took part in different cultural activities such as a tour around Seville. Also, students traveled to another Andalusian city Malaga.

 

 

The trainees were taken on a journey through some of Seville´s most important historical moments such as the discovery of America, and the subsequent first boat trip around the world, and the trainees saw some gorgeous views of Triana, La Isla de La Cartuja, La Maestranza, El Barrio del Arenal and the 1992 Expo.

 

 

Students get sufficient Spanish courses with our Spanish teacher, we emphasize practice, so during lessons students play a lot, because we think the game is the best teacher. Spanish classes can be described in two words: dynamic and practical. That is why, after intensive and hard learning, the students had written an exam. All the participants passed with very good results!

 

4 weeks in Seville were surely an unforgettable experience, we hope students gained a lot of practical knowledge and skills and that some of them might have enjoyed Spain that much they would like to come back there in the future!

PARTICIPANTS’ OPINIONS

Mieke Knegtel

Clean and neat apartment, necessary things within walking distance. The Spanish lessons were a bit too easy, but still gave me some new knowledge of the language, especially in the last classes. If there was a problem, we could always contact someone from Euromind with questions or problems, and they quickly solved it, the contact with Kris was very good and smooth. The internship was and is really great, top staff that works there, you are warmly received and you get many opportunities to practice different techniques. There was a lot to do and see in Seville. Very good experience here from start to finish.

My internship in Sevilla was very good. Our coordinator Kris reacted quickly whenever we had any problem and arranged a great internship at the hospital HLA. Everything was organized so we could start our adventure immediately. The apartment was perfect for me and I had everything there that I needed. The city of Seville is beautiful and I enjoyed my stay here a lot. I am grateful to euroMind for organizing this experience.
