Kenya Medical & Dental Voluntary Service Abroad

Africa health volunteer placements are open to medical professionals including doctors, dentists, nurses, medical laboratory technologists, etc. They are also open to students in all medical fields. A professional license, relevant student ID or college letter showing your program and level of study is required at the start of your medical volunteer placement abroad.

All prospective international medical volunteers also need to submit a resume showing their area and level of expertise and what they hope to achieve from the medical volunteer placement in Africa. Prep-program students (such as pre-meds) should apply for the medical internships, not the medical volunteer program.

There are a number of medical and dental clinics in Kenya where voluntary healthcare workers can be placed. We also have wonderful international volunteer placement opportunities for dentists and dental technicians and hygienists in a number of Kenyan hospital dental units. You can also volunteer or do your internship as a dental or medical assistant at one of the local hospitals.

Kenyan medical clinics, health centers and hospitals vary in size and number of patients from as many as 5 per day to as many as 200 or more. Generally overseas interns and volunteers abroad in medical and dental work will assist and support local doctor/dentists, nurses and clinicians in the normal routine of medical work including taking vital signs, dressing wounds, taking patients history, counseling patients, providing assurance and moral support to patients' family, disbursing minor drugs etc.

International healthcare volunteers and interns in Kenya will be expected to work for between 3 to 8 hours a day. You will find the Kenya dental and medical volunteering abroad opportunity enlightening and rewarding.

Many of the Kenyan healthcare facilities lack modern facilities and the few that are available are often broken down from overuse. Any donations of facilities are welcome. Such donations can be channeled to the hospitals directly. Please Contact Us for advise and information.
