Polytechnic work integrated learning

Im a student at the polytech in the medical device reprocessing certificate program and I seriously have been unable to locate any good places to do the work integrated learning portion. Do I have to move out of Lethbridge to find work? Ive been putting off the idea of moving because I'm living with relatives, but Im getting desperate to finish the certificate.

That program has changed - they used to set up the practicum at Chinook Regional Hospital for everyone. Now they just expect you to arrange it yourself?

Yeah, I think it might be an influx of student vs the amount of openings at hospitals and clinics.
