Description:

In the Dominican Republic, many people either live far from a healthcare facility, or may not have the means to afford regular check-ups and basic medicines. By participating on this type of trip, volunteers travel to different rural locations each day, providing and assisting with outpatient medical care for those in need. This is a great fit for doctors, nurses, students, and Spanish-speakers. Non-medical team members will also be useful with crowd control, entertaining the children, and assisting the on-site pastor.
