Overview
Many people in rural areas of Kenya have very little or no access to proper medical care. Currently we are in the process of constructing a local clinic and maternity ward to provide better medical care for the community of Olasiti and surrounding rural villages. As a medical volunteer you can still make a positive impact within communities.
You can offer basic medical checks and advice. Provide information and advice about diet & nutrition, and basic hygiene to promote healthy living.
Offer workshops to educate about preventative health care to raise awareness of HIV/Aids, educate locals (in the communities and in schools) about safe sexual practice.
We welcome medical volunteers from all specialist areas including physiotherapy, dentistry, speech & language therapy, dietitians, midwifery and pediatrics. Your knowledge and experience will be invaluable.
