Полное описание

Volunteers are placed into hospitals and health centers according to their qualifications and experience. Medical volunteer in Tanzania need to show initiative and have a readiness to work in a new environment. Because of the utmost importance of proper healthcare coupled with the fact that most volunteers cannot communicate directly with patients due to language barriers, volunteers need to understand that they may not be allowed to take part in some serious medical cases. The doctors are understandably hesitant to allow volunteers to operate on patients. While a medical volunteer may be appropriately qualified to do so, the instruments available in Tanzania will probably not be familiar to volunteers. So, if working on the medical volunteer in Tanzania placement volunteers should not become frustrated if they are not actually conducting surgeries. Volunteers will be observing surgeries, taking blood pressure, administering vaccines, along with a wide range of other medical tasks. Medical Volunteering Projects in Tanzania have subdivision subject to volunteer’s Knowledge or Awareness. These subdivision include the following:- Midwifery and Midwife Volunteering In Tanzania Projects Nurse and Nursing Volunteering In Tanzania Projects Medical students Internship Projects in Tanzania Medical student elective Projects in Tanzania Midwifery elective projects Tanzania Nurse elective Projects Tanzania Dental Care Volunteering Projects Tanzania Optician or eye care Volunteering Project Pediatrician Volunteering Projects Accommodation HOME STAY ACCOMMODATION Living is basic but all the Home Stays have electricity and running water and accommodate volunteers in safe and secure homes (some rural home stays may not have electricity or running water during times of drought). All home stays have been inspected thoroughly by local staff and chosen because of their safety and security. Most volunteers love their home stays and feel that they get a more authentic Tanzanian experience by staying there. VOLUNTEER HOUSE The Volunteer House is a western-style house with 6 bedrooms (all shared accommodations with bunk beds). It has 2 bathrooms with western-style toilets and occasional hot water for showers. The house also includes one double bedroom, and this room is generally reserved for married couples. The house is safe and secure, with a security guard and a large gate. In the volunteer house, there is a cook who cooks the meals for the volunteers. (Please note that spaces in the volunteer house are very limited and can only accommodate 18 to 24 people). Food & Beverages Meals: You will be provided with 2 meals daily. Breakfasts generally consist of Chai (tea), toast, cereal, fruit and mandazzi (deep fried dough). Dinner usually sees traditional food such as ugali, chapatti, boga and irio accompany the meat and vegetables.
