Project: We will provide outpatient medical and dental care to needy people who have little access to care.  We will be working in a clinic with no x-ray and little lab capability.  We will provide basic medical evaluation, limited outpatient surgical procedures, dental care, and medicines.   We will also focus on community health education and evangelism for those attending the clinic. The setting is in poor villages near Chiquimula.

Personnel Needs:  Primary care physicians, PAs/NPs, dentists, nurses, dental assistants, pharmacists and health profession students. Spanish speakers to help with translation are needed as well.  Non-medical people are also welcome and will be able to help professionals in the clinic, help with logistics, patient flow, evangelism and ministry to children.
