Works towards zero transmission of HIV by providing free treatment, care and support to HIV+ children, adolescents, and pregnant women in Zambia.
Are you completing a medical qualification? Do you want to get some front line experience with children or HIV and related illnesses? Or learn more about healthcare systems in the developing world? We welcome individuals with the following medical training:
By working side by side with our clinical team in the TTF Clinic you will directly be supporting our beneficiaries and team.
In the urban compounds around Lusaka where TTF work, government clinics either do not exist or they are overwhelmed by the ever growing population. When an individual first finds out they are HIV+ or if a child is tested as positive, attending a government health facility can be a hugely daunting process, with long queues and limited patient time.
At the TTF Pediatric Clinic we work to support some of the most vulnerable HIV+ children, adolescents and pregnant women. We support HIV+ children aged 0 through to 20, helping individuals most in need by providing them with the full range of medical care and counselling services needed in order for them to lead healthy, productive lives.
WE WELCOME THE SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE OF VOLUNTEERS TO SUPPORT OUR PROGRAMMES & HIV+ CHILDREN
This opportunity is located in Lusaka, Zambia.
