Why Choose Try Medics?

Since 2015, Try Medics has organized hospital internships abroad for young people considering a career in healthcare, as well as clinical internships abroad for students in nursing, medicine, midwifery, dentistry, and physiotherapy.

With a focus on participants' safety and development, we create a structured and secure environment where young people with an interest in healthcare can grow both personally and professionally. Whether you choose Uganda or Zanzibar as your destination, you can expect an internship in a safe setting that allows you to fully focus on your learning and experiences.

In addition to observational internships for young people during their gap year and self-arranged clinical placements for students, many healthcare education programs offer the possibility of undertaking an internship as part of a semester course. We have, for instance, hosted students from institutions such as Copenhagen University College, Aarhus University, UCL, Absalon, UCN, and VIA.

More than just an internship

With over 2300 participants over the years, we have built a strong community and broad recognition in Denmark, ensuring that you will travel with other young people who share your interest in healthcare. Together, you can reflect on your experiences and share impressions—both during and around the internship.

In addition to an educational hospital internship abroad and unique cultural experiences, it’s often the new connections that leave the biggest impression and stay with you long after your journey. The program is also ideal for those traveling alone, as the vast majority of participants start without knowing anyone beforehand. From day one, you’ll be part of a supportive community where friendships and shared experiences quickly become a natural part of your stay.

Safety Throughout the Entire Journey

Whether you choose Uganda or Zanzibar as your destination, a dedicated team will ensure that your internship is both safe and seamless. The team's local experience allows them to take excellent care of safety while creating an experience that meets your expectations from start to finish.

A program coordinator will introduce you and the other participants to the internship site, be present daily throughout the entire program, and provide continuous follow-up on your experiences. Additionally, the rest of the team, including drivers, cooks, and cleaning staff, will take care of all practical aspects of the stay, so you can fully focus on the experience.

Well Prepared

We will guide you thoroughly through the entire preparation process for your trip. This includes recommendations for choosing your flight route, travel vaccinations, insurance, packing list, and other practical details, ensuring you are as well-prepared as possible for your internship.

You and the other participants will be gathered in a shared Facebook group, which we use for group messages and coordination leading up to the start of the internship. We encourage you to travel together from Denmark, and the group is actively used to make it easier to plan this—there is generally great interest in traveling together.
