Healthcare Volunteering in Nairobi, Kenya

 

Summary
Volunteer at a medical clinic in the bustling capital city Nairobi.

Program Description
Our medical volunteer programs in Nairobi place volunteers at small medical clinics that treat a wide range of patients.

The medical clinics treat newborn babies to seniors, for a wide range of conditions like colds/flu, injuries, malaria, pregnancy and childbirth, etc. Serious, life-threatening cases are referred to large hospitals in Nairobi.

Volunteers perform tasks like taking vital signs, dressing wounds, administering shots, drawing blood, holding babies while they are being treated, helping to screen and organize patients, assisting staff with getting medicines/supplies, and generally helping out in whatever capacity they might need you.

It's a great opportunity to donate your skills and time to helping others in need, while gaining hands-on medical experience and learning firsthand about medical care in Kenya – common diseases, treatments, and issues affecting healthcare in the country.

Volunteers must be studying or practicing in the healthcare field, as doctors, nurses, EMT's, and medical and nursing students with clinical experience. We do not accept premed students into the program.
