Searching for hospitals for Medical Lab Science internship? Well, I got you on this page.
It is one thing to gain admission into the university to study Medical Laboratory Science, it is another thing altogether to get a place for your internship.
In fact, getting a place to do your internship is almost the same as looking for admission into the university.
Moreover, its mandatory for graduates of Medical lab science in Nigeria to undergo a one-year internship at an approved health facility. This is a requirement to be a licenced medical laboratory scientist.
So holding a B.MLS. without doing your internship will not do you much good. That is, if you want to pursue a career as a medical laboratory scientist.
But you are looking for hospitals to do your internship. That’s what this page is about. So, whether you are still in school and looking to prepare ahead or recently graduated, this page will be helpful. Meanwhile, you can also check out these 6 things you should do before finishing school if you are still in school.
The Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria (MLSCN) is the body responsible for accrediting universities and hospitals for med lab programmes.
However, not all hospitals are approved for Medical Lab Science internship. This post covers the hospitals approved by MLSCN for medical laboratory science internship in Nigeria.
So check through carefully to see which hospitals are in your state. That is if you’re looking to do your internship at your local government or any other place within your state.
By the way, we recently published a post showing you how to start life as a fresh graduate in Nigeria. You will find tips to help you get started after school.
