since i'm an international student, how can i get references for the university enrollment in London

since i'm an international student, how can i get references for the university enrollment in London?
i'm italian and i have been living in London for some months, i haven't been working here yet, and i came in London only to apply for an undergraduate degree in nursing at king's college. as i'm not british and i've never worked here, who can i get a reference from? i worked in a hospital in italy for 1 and a half year, as nurse's aide, i could get references from a doctor who know me very well, but she is italian and not able to write in a good english. does anyone know if it's necessary to get references only from someone living in UK? may i get a reference from that doctor, asking for a traslation of an interpreter? how can i do it? please if someone knows, let me know. i really need to know it soon. thank you!!

Get the reference from the doctor. There's no need for your references to be from the UK. Italy is completely acceptable. Have her write it in Italian. At the same time, contact the school, and ask if there is any specific process they need you to follow in terms of the translation.

Get your reference from the Italian doctor. You may be required to pay to have it officially translated, but it's worth asking - the person who will be reading the reference might speak Italian anyway.
