    Om programmet

     Health care: we work with some health centers with the support from the Ghana Health Service to assist in giving medical needs to deprived and sick fellows who need medical attention, something that is ideal for volunteers who work as doctors and/or nurses. Volunteers can help out at local clinics and hospitals. Our healthcare placements offer an exceptional learning opportunity, in addition to a gratifying volunteer experience. For those who aspire to a career in health-related fields, these placements offer an international learning ground where you can not only view healthcare in practice, but healthcare as practiced by professionals in a different country. For anyone interested in social services, observing the administration of health services in other parts of the world is invaluable. A volunteer could either work in the optometry, dentistry and nursing departments of our partner hospital or clinic 

    Depending on your specification you will be kept at where your services will be most needed. Our health project over the years have offered volunteers the chance to have first hand experiences in the theater and wards to deliver quality health care to our community members who visit these facilities on daily basis.
