Testimonials

"Adding the village healthcare week onto my placement really helped me have a better understanding of the whole Ghanaian healthcare system and actually just the Ghanian culture."

"A man came in quite poorly. He was really delirious and obviously needed oxygen. But the family couldn’t afford it, so he didn’t get it."

"The baby started coming down and as it did, the local midwife started to pull the baby out - something we would never do at home during a normal birth."

"The NICU team was so welcoming and friendly, in particular my supervisor. She made me feel at ease, showed me the ropes and was so keen to teach. She was amazing."

"My motto is that you only regret the things you don’t do in life. If you’re thinking about going on a placement like this, that is what I would say to you."
