Learn MoreWe have the dates now for the 2016 trip to Bolivia. Our plan is to coordinate with Pro-Salud in Cochabamba and work in their new facility again this year. ÂÂ Last year was our third experience there, and it was a very successful trip. It is new ÂÂ hospital with great equipment. We left supplies for this year and have an inventory last year and I will post a wish list. . We have OB-Gyne, Dr.Jennifer Daif and Dr. Ike Shasha, a General Surgeon. ÂÂ Our team is nearly complete. If you hear of any RNs or CRNAs interested, there are still two spots open. ÂÂ At this time, I need all committed volunteers to email me your license and a CV. It's their requirement, before we continue the process of setting up the program. Email to my personal email: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . We always need more scrub/circulators, so if you know any, please give them my personal email address and the website.ÂÂ
Our sceduled surgical ÂÂ program is May 20th - 29th. ÂÂ The flight on Friday departs at 11 pm, so you could theoretically work and take the Tri-Rail and still arrive with three hours before departing. ÂÂ Each person's contribution with be $250, which you should bring in CASH ÂÂ to Bolivia. Go to the bank and get GOOD BILLS; ie $100 bills with no markings or rips.This covers all meals in Bolivia and transportation. ÂÂ Room rates are $57 per night ( single) or $83 per night double. ÂÂ You can pay with a credit card, but be sure it has a chip which is required for international charging.ÂÂ
