Your Internship

Medical Internship in Zanzibar

Located in the heart of historic Stone Town, the local Hospital has been serving the community since its establishment in 1923. Situated next to the esteemed state house of Zanzibar, it stands as the primary referral hospital for both islands comprising Zanzibar. Comprising three distinct buildings, including the main facility at Mnazi Mmoja, a maternity hospital at Mwembeladu, and a mental health facility at Kidongo Chekundu, this hospital offers a comprehensive range of services essential to a referral center.

Esteemed as the teaching hospital for health colleges and universities on the island, this institution plays a vital role in shaping the future of healthcare professionals. It serves as a beacon of knowledge and expertise, empowering the healthcare workforce and benefiting the communities it diligently serves. However, the persisting challenges of medical equipment and supply shortages pose obstacles to achieving the United Nations’ third goal of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development: Good Health and Well-Being.

To actively engage in the hospital’s medical program, participants are required to possess relevant medical experience and/or a background in healthcare. This prerequisite enables them to shadow and gain valuable insights into healthcare service delivery. Based on their skill level and experience, participants will be assigned a range of tasks aimed at assisting the hospital and extending support to individuals with limited access to affordable and quality healthcare.

By joining this program, participants have the opportunity to contribute their knowledge and skills to the hospital while also making a meaningful difference in the lives of community members. Additionally, participants can make a valuable impact by donating additional resources and supplies, bridging the financial gap and fostering support for the local community.

Tasks and duties may include but are not limited to observing and monitoring patients, familiarizing oneself with treatment techniques, and providing vital health outreach information. Through these activities, participants can actively contribute to improving healthcare outcomes and fostering a healthier society.

Throughout the weekdays, from Monday to Friday, you will immerse yourself in a fulfilling experience at the local center or hospital, devoting at least five hours each day to assisting with healthcare service provision. This structured routine is designed to maximize your impact and create meaningful connections with the community.

The day will commence with a nourishing breakfast, energizing you for the rewarding tasks ahead. You will then dedicate your time to supporting healthcare services, working alongside dedicated professionals who share your passion for making a positive difference. By actively engaging in patient care, you will witness firsthand the transformative power of compassionate healthcare.

A well-deserved lunch break will provide you with an opportunity to rejuvenate and reflect on the impact you’ve already made. Following this interval, you will eagerly return to continue your contributions, ensuring the seamless delivery of healthcare services to those in need.

As the day draws to a close, you will partake in a satisfying dinner, fostering camaraderie and connection among fellow participants and healthcare professionals. These shared moments will not only nourish your body but also nourish your spirit, as you reflect on the meaningful work accomplished throughout the day.

Please note that this schedule is flexible, adaptable to any unexpected circumstances that may arise, such as weather conditions or local considerations. Rest assured, your commitment to making a difference will remain steadfast, and your dedication to serving the community will guide your every step.
