Albany Medical Outreach trip to DR, July 2018



Jocelynn's Message

One of my goals has always been to participate in mission work abroad. This summer I will be able to fulfill my dream. As a volunteer with my University and an organization known as Volunteers Around the World, I will have the opportunity to experience work as a healthcare professional in the Dominican Republic. I will learn how to intake patients, conduct public health surveys, learn how to take vitals, shadow local physicians, work in a pharmacy, educate local youth, and explore my culture in new ways. Each of these activities will contribute to my long-term goal of being a healthcare professional.

I am humbled and grateful to be able to participate in such a cause and any donation(s) would mean a lot to me! I appreciate you taking the time to visit my page and I look forward to sharing my journey abroad.

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the Albany chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach trip to DR this upcoming Summer! Volunteers 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 at Albany will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in DR.

One of the most exciting and important parts of volunteering with VAW is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2017, VAW treated over 35,000 patients and we aspire to treat over 45,000 in 2018. 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 April 12-19,
