This amazing program plays an important role in supplying quality healthcare to those in need in Cambodia. It will prove to be a wonderful experience for volunteers in the medical or health fields. There is a high demand for volunteer nurses, doctors and health specialists in this stunning country. Placements on Love Volunteer’s popular healthcare program here are for volunteers aged 19 years and over.

Volunteers can work in a variety of healthcare locations, including in hospitals, health centres, on health education programs (in schools, communities and universities), and in orphanages. A medical qualification is not an essential requirement for a placement on this program. Volunteer’s involvement will be based on their prior experience and training. It is important to note that volunteers will not be allowed to partake in serious procedures and will be job ‘shadowing’.

However, depending on the volunteer’s level of experience, they may observe operations, provide assistance in basic procedures and visit patients, before and after surgery.

 

Goals of this Project:

  • Improve the future prospects of the people of Cambodia
  • Provide quality medical care to the impoverished people served by this project
  • Provide an opportunity for shared learnings  
  • To create a better cultural understanding between all participants
