Description:

The beautiful Caribbean island of Roatan, Honduras is about to provide you with a unique and satisfying volunteer/educational experience. Here on its delightful shores you will find an opportunity to use your skills to meet the health care needs of a culturally diverse people while enjoying all that a tropical island can provide. The Clinic welcomes physicians, dentists, pharmacists, nurses and students volunteers, for a short or long-term medical experience. Established to provide health care and education in an area where modern health care is not available, Clinica Esperanza works directly with local government officials, other health-care providers, educators, businesses, and private citizens to raise the standard of healthcare on the Islands.

As a volunteer in the Clinic you will work along with other team members to achieve this goal and further participate in active medical education of the staff and patients. Volunteering at Clinica Esperanza will also allow you to learn or improve on your Medical Spanish, as well as fill a critical need for optimal healthcare services on the island while increasing your knowledge of medicine in a resource poor environment.
