I can’t believe my third week here in the British Virgin Islands is over. I learn and see new things everyday here, especially in clinical settings. This opportunity to learn from different nurses and doctors has been amazing. As a future healthcare worker, I believe it is very important to learn how different cultures operate in a clinical setting. Some of the procedures are different here compared to the United States, as the hospital is very understaffed and lacks resources. Over the last two weeks, I have been able to bond and get to know a few of the nurses, who made an effort to help us learn and observe new experiences!
