International Nursing

Published

Hello,

I am a Canadian RN interested in International Nursing opportunity for a short period of time this summer. I would like to volunteer in Africa or India. Does anyone know any international nursing program for a couple of weeks this summer.

Thank you

You may find some medical missions for that length of time, but otherwise, it is going to be very hard to do and with such a short notice as you would need to get a visa for the country.

When you go in as a volunteer, it is a special visa that is needed for most countries. And not that simple to get, plus the agency would need to credential you as well.

You may wish to contact the Red Cross where you are and see if they have any needs right now because of the earthquakes in China as well as the disaster in Myanmar. Those may be the easiest to be able to get to at this time.

Best of luck to you.
