    -The Projects-

    1. Seliani Lutheran Hospital:     Providing Essential Healthcare Service to over 300 patients daily 


    Located in the heart of Maasai country, Seliani Lutheran Hospital provides essential healthcare to over 300 patients daily, serving communities with limited access to modern care.
    Volunteers play a key role alongside local doctors and nurses, assisting with patient care, maternity services, and treatment of conditions such as tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and mental health challenges.
    Whether supporting new mothers, helping patients manage chronic illnesses, or observing rural medicine in action, you’ll gain hands-on experience and a deeper understanding of global health.
    This project is ideal for medical students or professionals seeking to make a real impact while learning in a resource-limited yet inspiring environment.

This program offers hands-on, real-world experience for healthcare students and professionals, enhancing medical skills while understanding the challenges of healthcare in rural settings.

    Tagesablauf

    Each day begins with a bus ride from your accommodation in Arusha to the hospital via public transport.

Depending on your skills and interests, you may rotate between various departments, including emergency care, midwifery, pharmacy, or surgery.

    Your work will involve both direct patient care (such as assisting with deliveries, providing medical support, or helping with minor procedures) and supporting hospital operations, such as preparing medical supplies or assisting in the pharmacy. Every day presents a new set of challenges and learning opportunities, as you work in a fast-paced environment where your contributions are truly appreciated.

    You will finish your day at 3:00 pm, but there’s flexibility to work additional hours, including night shifts or weekends if desired. This ensures that you gain as much hands-on experience as possible while helping meet the community’s needs.
