Medical Volunteers for Ghana

Our work is dedicated to supporting primary health care and public health in Ecuador since 2000, Ghana since 2003, Nepal since 2017, and Rwanda since 2019 in close collaboration with local partners.

This type of collaboration allows us to exchange experience between Ecuador, Ghana, Nepal and Rwanda.

VOLUNTEER

Many dedicated local and international volunteers support our work on the ground in Ghana. Our volunteers collaborate closely with local staff members and the community, and engage in medicine and health. 

Please contact Sena Tordzro with any questions you may have, or to share your application (CV and motivation letter). When applying, please indicate why and when you would like to volunteer with FHN, and outline any previous working experience in low- and middle-income countries. You can find our code of conduct here.

Keen on supporting health care delivery and capacity building in rural Ghana? Alongside a senior nurse you would be responsible for the provision of primary health care for the local population. While you would see patients, the emphasis of your work would be on supervising, supporting and building local staff members' capacity. Prior to starting your work in the primary care center, you would get the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the new context at the local district hospital of Agogo.

The minimum volunteer commitment in "Boamadumasi" is three months. You must have at least three years of postgraduate experience as a doctor or nurse, a diploma in tropical medicine or nursing or public health and good English language skills.
