Come join us as we make a difference in a local community in Quito, Ecuador. We will be serving at a local church in a clinic-type setting. No requirement to speak Spanish. You will be hosted by an Ecuadorian family and have an opportunity to experience the people and culture of Ecuador.
We treat a range of common ailments including arthritis, infections, and GI complaints. We often diagnose and initiate treatment for chronic conditions such as HTN and diabetes followed by a referral to the local medical clinic for follow-up care. Serious acute conditions are transported to the local hospital.
Medical Professionals can include: MD, RN, OBGYN, PT, NP, PA
Support Staff can include: Non-medical pharmacy, organization; Reading and Sunglass Distribution; Patient Coordination; Children's Entertainment
Want to participate but cannot travel?: We would love help collecting beanie babies. We will distribute shoes of all sizes. Have a sewing group? We can distribute dresses to girls.
We can also accept donations for gifts for our partner Ecuadorian support staff and translators.
