OGVO’s Medicine in Ghana program is a project geared toward those who have a passion for learning about the field of medicine and want to experience the vibrant West-African country of Ghana. You will get a taste of the medical world so you can ensure you are making the right choice before you embark on your studies and it will benefit any application to study medicine at university.
The project combines outreach work in local communities, camps, and schools with 1 day per week spent observing at a local hospital or clinic. Work in the hospital or clinic will be shadowing and observing doctors in various departments. During the outreach work and public health clinics you will be involved in more hands-on work, like dressing wounds, carrying out health checks, giving malaria tests, and making presentations on common health issues.
The project is based in and around Kumasi – Ashanti region, but also available in other regions across Ghana. While volunteering in Ghana you will live with one of our host families. You will be able to immerse yourself in the real day-to-day lives of Ghanaians.
At the weekend we’ll take you to visit either one of Ghana’s stunning palm fringed beaches or the Kakum Rainforest Reserve near Cape Coast where you can hike through the jungle and experience the canopy walkway high in the trees. You will also have the opportunity to visit Cape Coast’s old slave fort.
As a teenage medical volunteer in Ghana, you’ll split your time between shadowing doctors and doing outreach work out in the community. Here are a few of the tasks you’ll be involved in: Your work will be split into three areas:
Observe the work of qualified doctors as they treat patients in a local hospital or clinic
One day a week, you’ll do observation work in a hospital setting. You’ll shadow doctors and nurses as they go about their day-to-day activities. You’ll watch them consult and treat patients, and complete follow-up consultations with previous patients. This will give you a better idea of what it will be like as a practicing doctor.
We encourage you to ask questions and take notes, so you can learn as much as possible from observing.
Assist professional medical staff as they provide free health checks during community outreaches
Most of your time will be spent working at medical outreaches in communities, and schools. You’ll be involved in more hands-on work during these outreaches. These include:
- Dressing wounds
- Carrying out health checks, like measuring blood sugar and blood pressure levels
- Giving malaria tests
- Making presentations on common health issues.
Explore Ghana with other high school students who have similar interests to you.
You’ll spend every day working and traveling alongside other teenagers from around the world. An interest in medicine is something you’ll all have in common.
When you’re not working, your supervisors will ensure there are plenty of social and cultural activities to keep you busy, along with weekend trips. You’ll soak up the sun at the beach, observe the wildlife at Mole national park, and learn about the country’s history at national museums.
All volunteers are expected to be flexible and open-minded and respect Ghanaian culture while in Ghana!
