Unpaid Nurse's Aid internship

    Hi folks

    An acquaintance of mine is aiming to study medicine in her native city in Germany. In order to qualify for a university course, she must supplement her exam grades with three months hospital experience. She has already completed two months as a Nurse's Aid in a German hospital, and now needs to complete the final third. The experience can be gained abroad. She has been here to Dublin and is extremely fond of the city.

    Can you tell me what's is the best approach she should use to try complete this month at a Dublin hospital? Would a letter to hospital's HR departments be the best avenue? Or perhaps directly to a head nurse? Might it be a case of "who you know?" She is making her enquiries (written) from Germany, which doesn't help but is unavoidable. She would be looking to do the month around midsummer. I'd imagine there is an amount of red tape and procedure to be followed, but as I said, she is willing to peform the duties unpaid.

    Any tips or guidance would be much appreciated.

    Cheers
