Medical elective volunteer placement that meets your elective requirements, while offering you a rewarding travel experience, as you are immersed in the local culture and have the opportunity to spend your weekends travelling with like-minded students.

Volunteers can participate in various medical settings, from urban hospitals to rural clinics, gaining exposure to a wide spectrum of healthcare scenarios. In hospitals, assisting healthcare professionals in diagnosis, treatment, and patient care provides invaluable learning experiences. Medical elective volunteer involvement ranges from shadowing doctors during surgeries to conducting health education workshops for communities.

The unique healthcare challenges in Nepal, such as limited access to healthcare in remote areas and prevalent health issues like infectious diseases and malnutrition, offer a chance to learn about resourcefulness and adaptability in medical practice. Medical elective volunteers often collaborate with local healthcare providers, exchanging knowledge and practices while offering support where it is needed most.
