Want to use your hard-earned clinical skills for good? Want to expand your medical knowledge, skills and awareness of global health issues? Want to be part of a shiny new Interhealth initiative enabling clinical medicine students to provide valuable healthcare to patients in East Timor?
Medicine in a low-resource setting is incredibly different from medicine in Australia. Confident clinical examinations are required to make a diagnosis in the absence of extensive investigations, and innovative use (and re-use) of resources is common.
WHO: clinical medical students at UWA
WHAT: 4-6 week clinical placement with pre-departure training
WHEN: over the December-January break
