Medical - Medical (general)
Italian term or phrase: esperienze assistenziali
This is the title of a section of a CV for a doctor. My question is whether "assistenziale" implies volunteer/charity work, or simply health care work. The jobs listed seem to me to be health care jobs rather than volunteer jobs: frequentatrice ambulatori e reparto, dirigente medico, etc.

  -> I believe it is job experience rather than as a volunteer. I don't know whether "hospital experience" is used, but I don't believe this is the internship/residency. "Professional experience" may be a better, more general translation.

neutral  Fiona Grace Peterson: To me "healthcare experience" suggests something more hands-on, such as that provided by nursing staff. I too would go with "professional experience", I think it's more suited to the context given by the asker

internship/residency


Explanation:
This is medical job, not charity, that's almost certain. However, it seems a bit strangely formulated. A bit more context would be helpful.

Every doctor needs to go through internship and later, if specialization is the goal, residency. Based on what follows in that section, you can decide whether he is talking about residency or internship experiences.

An alternative would be "assisting in special procedures" where he would list all his experiences assisting senior doctors in special procedures or the like. But you need to decide depending on the context.

experience


Explanation:
In a CV, this is translated as "experience" or "conical experience" if the MD also has to present his "research experience". Here, it's clear that he/she will detail the positions he/she had in clinic
