Medical volunteers
What do we help with?
YWAM Ships Aotearoa places physicians, dentists, eye doctors, and other medical professionals in short-term service on our vessels on deployment. We coordinate all the details of the assignment, including:
- Matching interests, abilities, and time frame with our vessels and locations
- Providing orientation and resources before and during the assignment
- Assisting with necessary visas, permits, and other field requirements
- Coordinating field housing and transportation
- Assisting volunteers in handling financial details related to overseas service
Where do you fit?
We have a dental chair on board the ship and there are mobile dental units that we take ashore. The most common procedure is extracting teeth relieving people of pain and infection.
