From my time in Kandy I really got to see the role of the Sri Lankan nurse in comparison to the UK.

The clinical skills I obtained here are far better than we get at home and the approach to health in a resource limited setting were two components that I will personally take home with me as I continue my training in Canada.

A month before we were meant to leave our independently organised elective was cancelled. We called Work the World and they arranged electives in our chosen fields around our flight dates.

If I were to use one word to sum up my time in Sri Lanka it would be ‘amazing’. It is an experience full of fabulous memories which will stay with me forever.

The highlight of my placement was going to an outreach clinic, then having king coconuts with the registrars on the side of the road on the way back.
