Destinations and placements
It was a really good opportunity to work with other health students to gain a better understanding of their role. It was really good practice to how we would all work together in a clinical setting. I also loved getting to learn about a whole new culture, and meet the beautiful people that were a part of the communities.
HS Global partners with host sites in Cambodia, China, Fiji, India, Nepal, Thailand and Vietnam. To find out more about each placement just click on the country tabs below.
How to apply
On a whole, my HS Global placement has been an unforgettable experience, one of which I will carry with me for the rest of my life. The people I have met, the skills that I have learnt, and the values that have been reinforced within me both as an individual and as a health professional will create great impact on me as I begin my journey as a Speech Pathologist.
