Over het programma

Are you studying medicine, are you a nurse, do you want to put your skills and knowledge into practice? We have a medical volunteer program in India. Together with the local medical team and the mobile van, you can care for children and young people from vulnerable communities in India.

The main objective of the medical program in India is to provide some of the population living in rural areas and slums of Jaipur with basic medical care. A van is in operation every day and functions as a clinic providing counselling, medical care and health care.
As a volunteer, you may find that many street children are exploited and forced to work, even sick. This environment and treatment causes many of them to suffer from diseases such as:
  • Tuberculosis
  • Asthma
  • Hepatitis
  • Malaria
  • Respiratory tract infections
  • Sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV/AIDS.
  • One of the main roles of a volunteer is to support the local medical team. If you are a volunteer who is studying medicine, nursing or has first aid experience, the possibilities for support in more specific areas will be greater.
Some of the check-ups and care provided as part of medical volunteering in India are:
  • Blood pressure
  • Temperature
  • Height and weight
  • Treatment of minor injuries
  • Patient records
  • Tasks and activities often vary from day to day.
One of the main functions of a volunteer is to support the local medical team. If you are a volunteer who is studying medicine, nursing or has a background in first aid, the possibilities to support in more specific areas will be greater.

If you don't have experience, the doctors will point out the activities you can support, as there are many different situations and cases.

The medical team in the van consists of: a doctor, a nurse, an assistant, a counsellor, a receptionist and a local volunteer.

Milo and his family are beyond amazing! It was an experience that I absolutely loved. The only thing I did not like is that you could walk nearly an hour into town OR take a $10 taxi every time you wanted to go into town. There were days where we went into town twice! If we were to pay for a taxi ...
