For nurses, this can include providing basic patient care, taking blood pressure, dressing wounds and helping to prepare medical equipment.
For student medical students and nurses it’s a good opportunity to challenge themselves and participate in something they realise will be life changing experience.
Volunteers can get hands-on experience working with local doctors and nurses in small local clinics, providing check-ups and basic medical care in low income communities.
