Detalhes
St. Miracle Works Educational Foundation needs midwife interns and volunteers to assist our partnered hospitals and clinics in Ghana. These health facilities offer maternity services and diagnosis, treatment of malaria, typhoid, diarrhea, as well as provide contraceptive services, immunization for infants, ante-natal care, ultrasound scan services, and HIV/AIDS counseling and testing.
Volunteer will also be able to participate in health education focused on providing expectant and nursing teen mothers who visit these health centers. Main topics include family planning and reproductive health, dietary nutrition for babies, and prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV/AIDS. Weekly immunization services are provided at the health center, as well as some outreach into remote village areas.
Volunteer with medical training/expertise and knowledge in the medical, nursing, midwifery or public health fields (students, groups, families are welcome) can help by providing curative and preventive health services. This is a challenging medical placement due to lack of facilities. Volunteers need to bring their own medical scrubs, gloves, mask for personal use.

Volunteers will arrive at the Kotoka International Airport (KIA) in Accra, the Capital city of Ghana. After been through arrival formalities, SMWEF staffs will meet you at the airport holding a placard at the arrival hall. Volunteers will be picked up from the airport to their accommodation where they will be having their volunteer work placement.
