Internship Details

Internship placements related to Orthopedic Medicine cater to the wider Spanish community, including a range of ages and health conditions. In all aspects of the internship activities, interns must prioritize the goal of improving the health of patients, while adhering to the standards and regulations of the internship placement. Interns should not expect to be directly “hands on” with patients, and should cooperate with their supervisor, according to the needs of the placement and its patients/clients.

Primarily, the focus within this field is on managing and treating bone and joint pain alongside seasoned professionals, who aim to preserve and restore the function of skeletal systems. While your role as an intern can vary, based on your level of experience and study, tasks and responsibilities will primarily involve assisting, observing, and shadowing across a range of daily situations, including patient care, consultations and treatments, evaluation and examinations, treatment establishment and follow ups.

Interns may also have scope to assist with projects related to the design and improvement of various processes, assist with ongoing research, teaching projects, and gain insight into the use of services like wheelchairs, prosthetic devices and orthotics.
