Key to a successful internship in Vietnam: FLEXIBILITY <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Doing internships abroad<\/strong> in Pharmacy department requires our students  to quickly adapt to new environment, work settings, work pace and language in order to fulfil the tasks. They consult patients in medicine usage in English, Chinese and Vietnamese. Their incentive is to teach staff basic English so their colleagues can manage their work better during peak hours. They learn to adjust to pace of the official pharmacy department where work is intensive and demanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technical terms adaptation is also a necessary task to work effectively in the pharmacy department, which Kei and Skye had done so well in locating and identifying the medication with unfamiliar brand names and the pharmaceutical class of the drugs.  <\/p>\n\n\n
