Participating in this placement will support doctors and nurses to care for their low-income patients that may not be able to afford medicine, x-rays and other necessary medical procedures. Not only will you gain valuable practical experience that will put you in a great position in your career, but it will also teach you life lessons and insights into other cultures and economies which is greatly important.

Preferably, volunteers on this project are:

• Studying or recently graduated from their healthcare, medicine, dentistry or nursing course.
• Qualified in a related field. Volunteers are also greatly appreciated; if desired, they could practice medicine after completing a Ghanian written medical test.
• Considering a degree in medicine. You are still able to file admin work if you have no experience at all.

Yes! Ghana is one of the safest countries in Africa with less crime than other parts of Africa. At Kaya, we have helped hundreds of volunteers on their volunteering journeys and have only had positive feedback! Enquire with our Kaya advisors, if you have any more questions or concerns!
