Volunteer Opportunities

  • MEDLIFE Nicaragua Application Extended

    This spring, MEDLIFE: UConn will be traveling to Managua, Nicaragua from May 12, 2018 to May 20, 2018 for a service trip! We are currently recruiting volunteers to travel with us and set up mobile medical clinics in the developing communities in the Managua area. While we are at the clinics, you will have the opportunity to:
    • Shadow and assist physicians and dentists
    • Triage patients
    • Teach children how to brush their teeth
    • Educate community members on common health disorders
    • Help the pharmacist dispense medications
    Additionally, one day of the week will be spent on a developmental infrastructure project in the community. 
     
    Applicants can be any major. MEDLIFE is a non profit that acknowledges the many factors (such as development and education) that affect health care. Different perspectives are critical to effectively make a difference.
     
    Non UConn students are also welcomed to apply. If you are interested in attending, you may apply for our trip here: https://goo.gl/forms/tAsXqiqI5FeJOfEB3
     
    Applications are extended to March 30th 11:59PM (TODAY). Feel free to email medlifeuconn@gmail.com with any questions you have. Hope to see you apply!
