Cuba Immersion Program

A two-week long immersion trip to Cuba is for Nursing and Health Professions students to experience Cuba's health care system firsthand.

In Cuba, healthcare is a human right reflected in a health policy that emphasizes prevention, primary care, community services, and active participation of citizens. Cuba's efforts have produced an impressively high ranking on major health indicators, despite economic handicaps.

This immersion trip will include general and medical Spanish, visits to providers, and cultural activities.

If you have any questions or are interested in this study immersion trip, please contact Dr. Meera Nosek, mnosek@usfca.edu for more information about this program.
