Volunteer: Medical Training Program- Cameroon
Volunteer: Medical Training Program- Cameroon

Location: Yaounde, Cameroon

Job Description:

Maria Rosa Nsisim Medical and Surgical Foundation Medical Training Program
Yaoundé, Cameroon

Job Description:

Project HOPE is recruiting health care volunteers for 3+ week rotations, beginning in April 2011, to support a long-term training program at the Maria Rosa Nsisim Medical and Surgical Foundation (the Foundation) -- a partnership between Project HOPE, Good Works International LLC, African Investment Corporation, Blaz Design Management and Investment S.A, and the Government of Cameroon -- in the capital city of Yaoundé, Cameroon. This pilot volunteer program will focus on health education through clinical counterpart and didactic training to build capacity and improve health care provision in the country.

Mission Scope:

Project HOPE will send volunteer providers for 3+ week rotations on a continued and sustained basis, in accordance with the yearlong schedule set forth by the Foundation. Volunteers will deploy from home, live in Foundation-approved housing, and will work at the Foundation. Volunteers will conduct side-by-side teaching and training, as well as didactic education of the medical doctors and nursing staff.

Future Scale-Up:

Project HOPE will also be looking to develop a technical health assessment team to survey the Foundation to assist in the development of long-term programmatic goals and metrics to develop three key areas in order to refine the Foundation's identity in country: 1) hospital administration, 2) OB-GYN, and 3) emergency room operations. The output of this assessment will help determine future long-term training to improve the Foundation's capacity as well as set a model that is replicable across the country. This program has great potential for the future and we are looking for visionary volunteers to come in and help lead and guide this program.

Funding:

Volunteers will be responsible for their roundtrip airfare to Yaoundé and their visa. The Foundation will offer a meet/greet service, airport transfers to and from Yaoundé, all meals, and lodging in a Foundation-approved facility. The Foundation will manage an orientation program as well as the in-country accreditation and host nation credentialing process.

Recruitment: For the initial training program, we are looking for qualified, board-certified volunteers, both physicians and nurses, specializing in the following areas:
.Long-term, in-country site managers of any healthcare specialty to provide continuity and leadership of HOPE volunteer teams
.Pediatricians
.General Practitioners/Emergency Medicine/Internal Medicine MDs
.OB-GYNs
.Family and Pediatric Nurse Practitioners
.Midwives
.Pediatric RNs
.Medical Surgical RNs
.NICU/PICU RNs
.Pharmacists

For the long-term technical assessment team, we are looking for the following (team will total 5 personnel) and will deploy as a unit, time to be coordinated:
.Hospital Administrator
.OB-GYN
.Pediatrician
.General Practitioner/Emergency Medicine/Internal Medicine MD
.Senior Nursing Educator

To volunteer, please click on the "Apply Now" button at the top of this page. Background, personal and professional reference checks will be performed for all candidates. This activity will be challenging physically and emotionally. A passion for medicine and helping people is a requirement. Flexibility toward accommodating change, adaptability, creativity, and a good attitude is also needed. Volunteers will be living and working directly with the Foundation, so an independent and adventuresome spirit is a must. The ability to speak French is a plus, but not a requirement.

This is Project HOPE's first venture into Cameroon. Yaoundé is a very safe city and this project has the full cooperation of the Foundation and the Ministry of Health in Cameroon. In the future, Project HOPE will also be participating in US Navy Africa Partnership Station missions to Cameroon to further emphasize our desire to improve healthcare in the country. All of these activities are designed to look broadly and strategically at the country and find ways to cooperate with local organizations and the government to synchronize efforts for the betterment of Cameroon.
