Dear Program Director,

 

Please share this opportunity with your residents.

 

We are excited to share with you a new international medicine elective for residents.  The resident spends 2-4 weeks living on a large sailing catamaran traveling to remote islands in Tonga and Fiji providing free healthcare via "floating health care clinics".  The program operates from April through October and is a partnership between the Palmetto Health Emergency Medicine Residency and Sea Mercy, a not-for-profit organization with the mission of providing access to health care to the most remote islands in the South Pacific.  See the link below and attached flyer for more information.
