Volunteers are the heart of RAM, both literally and figuratively. RAM volunteers come from all walks of life. Our clinics are made possible by a network of humanitarians like you.
Some volunteers highly skilled in a health-care-related field, and many others help by using non-medical skills. Everything RAM has done has been because of volunteer efforts.
Over the years, thousands of people have volunteered with RAM. Many are people who live in the local communities, helping out with their home project. Others are "regulars" who have been part of many clinics.
Vital to the services provided are the professionals who volunteer. Nurses, paramedics, and EMTs are always needed to triage the patients. Dentists, dental technicians, and dental hygienists are core to providing dental services. Ophalmologists, optometrists, opticians, and optical lab technicians make the vision services function. Medical doctors serve patients at many expeditions, and audiologists, podiatrists, and massage therapists have volunteered at various expeditions.
One of the most striking aspects of working with RAM is the quality of the people who volunteer. RAM volunteers participate for various reasons, but the shared experience of serving others bonds us together as a team.
RAM always welcomes people interested in volunteering to come and be a part of an expedition. To volunteer, please fill out the volunteer application.
