Review

The family was awesome! They made us feel like if we were at home, always caring about our well being and available for anything we needed. The food was really good, the location was very convenient in order to move around and go to Delhi and other places. We think this family has been very concerned about our security and so committed to us.
About the Hands on medical program, it was a 100% what we were expecting as we felt really useful and learnt a lot. The Doctor was very committed, and kind with us. He also helped us getting our tickets to go to Agra even though it was not his role inside the company. However, we think it would be really helpful for other volunteers if the first day, somebody would give them a daily schedule of the program with the time and places in order to organize better themselves. We also think it is very important that the company explains a bit better before starting the program which are the medical abilities needed in order to be useful during the project because we think without the abilities needed such as knowing how to use a stethoscope and doing complete physical exploration to patients, the help to the people wouldn’t be sufficient.
Speaking of our country coordinator, we cannot say much as we met him literally for 15 minutes. Luckily, his job was done by the family’s daughter, Sarita, who was quite helpful.
Overall, our experience has been amazing and has helped us improve our medical career; we would definitely recommend it to another person.
