Clinic


During the last two days, students worked with Dr. Moore and volunteers from the Ranch to organize and offer a free health clinic.  They assessed dozens of patients, most of whom walked a significant distance to get this care. It was an incredible experience, allowing students to see many of the illnesses they have been reading about in their texts, and it bookmarks the end of our time in Mastatal.  At 1100 today we get on a bus and head to the Rafiki Lodge.  It's about a three hour trip.  Three days of training follow there on the beautiful Sevegre River, during which time students will earn their Swiftwater Rescue Technician certifications from Aerie instructor and owner of the Whitewater Rescue Institute, Cody Harris.
