This spring, MEDLIFE: UConn will be traveling to Cusco, Peru from May 18, 2019 to May 26, 2019 for a medical volunteer trip! We are currently recruiting volunteers to travel with us and set up mobile medical clinics in the developing communities in the Cusco 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.
