Where Are They Now?

Now working as a Tissue Viability Nurse Specialist, Leanne reflects on her time in Tanzania.

Jemma travelled to Ghana in 2010. Since then she’s worked as a cardiac nurse and pursued her passion for tropical nursing in Malawi.

"Just go for it, don’t think too hard about it. Take the opportunities while you have them because once you’re working it’s not so easy."

"To see a breech baby actually being delivered in Tanzania was incredible. I wrote my dissertation about it."

"In Nepal, if you don’t have the money for treatment, you’re not getting it even if you need it to save your life"

"It was my time with Work the World that got me this job, it totally prepared me for it!"

Now an FY1 Doctor, Charlotte talks to us about how her placement in Iloilo helped her get there.

"I’ve now got a much better idea of where I want my career to go and what I want out of it."

"If you’re thinking about undertaking a placement with Work the World, just do it. Literally, just do it."
