Medical Information and Emergency Contacts

Traveling to and working in a resource poor country like Haiti can be dangerous to those individuals with serious health issues. Having a chronic medical condition would not disqualify an individual from participating in the program, however, each applicant is considered on a case by case basis. It is ultimately up to the team leader to decide if an individual can be safely accommodated on a particular mission. Please be honest with your team leaders regarding any potential medical emergencies that could arise. All health information will be kept confidential by the team leader.

MEDICATIONS: Obtaining personal medications (that we do not bring with our team) is not possible as there are no retail pharmacies in Cap Haitien. All volunteers must be responsible for bringing any personal or emergency medications in ample supply.

PSYCHOLOGICAL HEALTH: Traveling to and working in Haiti can be a very stressful experience. Please inform your team leader of any psychological or emotional conditions (such as anxiety disorders, depression, panic attacks, mood disorders) that may affect your performance as a team member on this mission (all information will be kept confidential).
