Summer 2012 |
|
|
The El
Salvador medical program has been canceled for
summer 2012 due to a change in the security
situation in El Salvador. University officials
will continue to assess the security situation and
we hope to return to El Salvador in the future.
In the meantime, we are working to offer alternative
program options to our students, including a summer
clinical experience to Ecuador. |
|
|
|
Medical and pharmacy students will join other health
care professionals in training and practice to
provide health care in inner city clinics and
village “brigades”. They
will support the ongoing work of CEDEINFA (Center
for the Complete Development of Children and Their
Families), a non-profit, non-denominational mission
that helps rescue high-risk Salvadoran children who
live in the poorest communities of San Salvador.
Team members will be immersed in the Salvadoran
culture every day, working side-by-side with
Salvadoran health care professionals to provide
medical care in some of the poorest communities of
El Salvador. |
