El Ayudante is offering licensed medical professionals the opportunity to come and volunteer your time and talents to serve in our clinic. What does a medical “team” look like?   There are three options.

• A small group of medical professionals
• A medical professional who is part of a larger team doing community service and projects with El Ayudante.
• A medical professional who comes on his/her own to serve in the clinic. **

Whether forming a “team” to come alongside our clinic staff or coming as an individual to serve—know we are flexible with schedules and options.

Clinica El Ayudante is open 5 days a week from 7:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. In coming as a volunteer, you will be working alongside our Honduran staff as you serve.

  Only licensed medical personnel are able to practice in Honduras! It is also Honduran law that any medical professional that comes to work in Honduras will practice under a licensed, Honduran physician. You will be collaborating with our Honduran Medical Staff, who will be a great source of help to you as you may see illnesses and health issues not common in the States and yet are frequently treated here.

• Our 5,000 square foot clinic operates 5 days each week from 7:00am – 1:00pm. We have 4 general exam rooms, 3 dental rooms, 1 optical room, 2 treatment rooms, a lab, a pharmacy, a dental lab, an X-ray/ultrasound room, an area for spiritual care, and a waiting area.

We ask that all teams or individuals help to provide medicines and other supplies for the clinic. (We are continually updating equipment, our medicine formulary and needed supplies). Our goal is to supply you with the information necessary to bring the items that are really needed.  Please note that Honduran law forbids us to bring expired medicines into the country or to dispense them.  Please do not bring them or you will have trouble at customs!
