Overview
Are you a medical student or a health care professional? Do you want to have a life-changing experience shadowing medical professionals in the beautiful country of Kenya?
Unfortunately, half of the Kenyan population are under the line of poverty and do not get adequate healthcare facilities. They succumb to treatable diseases as the proper healthcare is expensive and out of their reach. Also, hospitals and clinics are very limited, overcrowded and understaffed. You can join and make a difference while also experiencing fascinating Kenyan cultures and traditions.
As a medical volunteer in Kenya, you will shadow doctors and nurses in a local clinic or hospital. Your roles and responsibilities highly depend on your skills and qualification. Generally, you will help collect information and measurements from the patients such as blood pressure, temperature, and height/weight and be available to assist the doctors and other medical staff when required.
Joining this medical volunteer program in Kenya will be an eye-opening and life-changing experience for you. You will gain invaluable international medical experience in a real setting while giving back to the communities in need.
