We are glad to have Willemijn and Melanie from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 with us in Ghana 🇬🇭 at the moment to be a part of our medical project! . . @w.llemijn is registered medical doctor and @melaniekoningen is a registered nurse and together they spent their first week in Ghana last week doing a whole lot of work at the university of Cape Coast Hospital by giving trainings and presentations to the Staff, doctors, nurses and the about 100 medical students. They managed to also do some mobile health clinic outreach in one of our partner villages. (Pictures in our next post so stay alert ) There’s more to come from these two medical professionals the rest of their stay in Ghana and we can’t wait to see what more they’re going to offer! We wish them good luck to the start of their second week in Ghana and overall success! ———————————————————————Visit our newly updated website at www.wahef.org and signup now and be a part of this experience and more! #wahef #volunteer #education #internship #medical #hospital #capecoast #ghana #africa #westafrica #travel #school #happykids #volunteerabroad #volunteering #medicalassistant #publichealth #publicservice #healthcare #healthservices #nursingstudent #nurse #medicalstudent #nurselife #student #studentlife #pa

We all have a responsibility to create as much healthcare awareness as possible! And MALARIA being the most deadliest disease recorded annually in the world, it’s always an honor to educate school kids and create some awareness for them. . . Thanks to the amazing volunteers and staff from our organization, we were able to collaborate with one of the Junior High Schools in the region and organized a teaching session for all the pupils. We also went there with a bunch of basic medical supplies for our Mobile Health Clinic to attend to some basic medical health issues.. . . Thanks to the team that made this possible @kweku_bimpong @princeokyir @dennis_charmin @matthieusteffen96 @annacowper . . Every little bit of effort count to make the world a better place for us all. Join us and be a part of something great and meaningful. www.wahef.org . . #wahef #volunteer #education #internship #medical #hospital #capecoast #ghana #africa #westafrica #travel #school #who #volunteerabroad #volunteering #malaria #publichealth #publicservice #healthcare #healthservices #nursingstudent #nurse #universityofedinburgh #edinburghuniversity #nurselife #student #studentlife #pa
