You will spend two weeks in this 15-bed hospital on a healthcare volunteering program with one resident doctor and several staff members.

Since 2016 hospital is running in its own building with the doctor and medical staffs providing the following services. Ultrasound and X-ray service. Minor operation/24 hour emergencies. Pharmacy/Laboratory. Anti-natal care and deliveries. In/Outpatient services. Nurses, doctors, or any type of medic who wants to experience daily hands-on in a rural hospital will find this program a truly rewarding experience.
