University of Georgia Medical Internship to Guatemala, December 2023/2024



Lyla's Message

Hello! My name is Lyla Lannan and I am going to Guatemala at the end of this year. I am traveling to Guatemala with VAW Global Health Alliance. During my time in Guatemala I will be volunteering at a local hospital and helping with any needs there. I am so excited to expand my knowledge of healthcare and to learn about a new culture.

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the University of Georgia chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach Internship to Guatemala this upcoming Winter! 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 University of Georgia 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 2022! 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.
