OSU Medical Internship to Guatemala, May, 2022



Addison's Message

Hi!
I’m Addison Basinski and I am going to be traveling to Guatemala in the summer of 2022. I will be traveling with OSU’s VAW chapter and participating in a medical outreach program. We will be working in medical clinics for communities in Guatemala. I am super excited for this opportunity and cannot to explore a new country and culture.

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the OSU chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach Internship to Guatemala this upcoming Summer! interns will work in mobile medical clinics, where they will have the opportunity to intake patients, conduct public health surveys, take vitals, shadow local physicians, work in the pharmacy, teach education classes, and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

VAW Global at OSU will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in Guatemala.

One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2019, VAW Global treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2020. One of the things that make our mobile clinics unique is that we not only triage and diagnose patients, but also provide them with the basic medications needed. Fundraising for medications is a huge part of creating a successful mobile clinic to help the local communities with effective care.

**Note: airfare goal will be updated once flights are purchased, tentatively the week of January 17-30.
