Volunteer: Medical, Nursing + Dentistry Electives

3 weeks ago

Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Global Nomadic Full time
Overview

Volunteer: Medical, Nursing + Dentistry Electives (online and in-person) in Peru. This project is with a surfing-inspired sustainable development non-profit (NGO) driving the development of poor Peruvian coastal communities through a path of sustainability. We develop environmental, educational, infrastructure and socio-economic projects working hand in hand with local communities and international interns. The precarious socioeconomic and environmental conditions of Lobitos and Talara (the closest city to Lobitos) mean that the local population is exposed to a range of health problems. These include but are not limited to: respiratory problems, infections, viruses, birth control and sanitation issues. In addition to this, the medical post in Lobitos is not functioning to capacity and the hospital in Talara is understaffed, which leads to demands for medical help and attention not being met. Additionally, there is a severe lack of public health awareness, therefore perpetuating health issues within families. In order to mitigate these impacts, we have established a cooperative Medical & Dentistry Volunteering Programme alongside The Lobitos Medical Post and The Talara Hospital in order to combat these issues.
