As part of our ongoing work, we have created this outstanding programme which gives you the opportunity to travel further into some regions in Peru where healthcare seems to be absent in every way possible. Our Mobile Clinics give the local people of these regions the chance to be seen by doctors, nurses, dentists and other healthcare professionals, something that they wouldn’t usually have.
Our Mobile Clinics are open to everyone who wants to make a difference by directly taking part in this and helping these people. We invite medical students, nursing students, dental students and all healthcare professionals since these trips would perfectly fit into their studies and would be a great place to gain hands on experience.
We organise our volunteer trips for our Mobile Clinics and cover absolutely everything, from accommodation for our team, to all the equipment and drugs to give to those who need treatment. Our professional team is formed by doctors, nurses, dentists, teachers and, of course, you, our volunteers, and together we aim to help as many people who need medical assistance as possible.
Our volunteer trips take one week, and we visit communities in the Amazon rainforest and the mountains. During this week we get to attend to people from these communities, and our main services delivered during these trips are medicine, dentistry and preventive medicine. All drugs prescribed during the trip are also donated to the patients.
You will receive 24/7 assistance during your time with us while staying in private accommodation that we provide. We have also organised trips for you to enjoy during your free time which are part of your elective with us. The doctors at the hospitals are flexible with the students and we have created official agreements to work alongside them. At some locations Spanish and Salsa lessons are also included.
This social healthcare programme has been organised to bring medical care to the poorest people of towns and villages of Lima. Each year, many children and elderly pass away due to respiratory diseases and hundreds of children are diagnosed with anaemia. These are just some of the problems these people have to deal with all year round and the main obstacle to access to health services they face is the economic factor and the distance to health facilities. Sometimes a person from a village who needs to see a doctor will have to walk for a whole day!
At Mundo Verde we have organised joint work with the Ministry of Health and hospitals to bring medical care to these people by working with doctors, nurses, dentists and volunteers to periodically visit each village to see the people and treat patients as well as to follow up with treatments they need.
Every month we have a planned visits to these villages and we need a minimum amount of people, usually 10, to make this possible. We encourage you to join us on this noble project and help us give something meaningful to both you and the less fortunate people of this area.
During our mobile clinic programmes, you will have two types of accommodation, the first being the hotel in which you will stay upon arrival and spend the first night. This hotel is conveniently located in the centre of the city near the most important places such as banks, restaurants and tourist attractions. All necessary amenities are available to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
The second type of accommodation consists of rural facilities, either a communal house, schools or rural hotels with basic services. Depending on the location at the time of the Mobile Clinic Trip, we guarantee you will have private accommodation that is safe and secure.
Meals during the Mobile Clinic Trip in Lima will be provided by us. This is a way to help the people we visit as we train them on how to make safe and healthy meals and it can become an income source to them.
The Mundo Verde Team will be available at all times during this trip in case you need to clear up any doubts, need suggestions or help of any kind.
Since the Mobile Clinic Trip takes just one week, we will provide translators for the whole time, making it easier to understand the professionals you will be working with and, of course, the patients.
At the end of each day, we will have a chat and discuss the cases of the day, withdrawing positive conclusions from what you have learned and practiced
All of this is included in the price of your elective and we don’t want you to face any surprise charges upon arrival.
