WHO WE ARE
We are a group of Student Respiratory Therapists who are embarking on a medical mission to Peru in May 2017. We are going to educate the community about respiratory health by holding respiratory conferences and workshops, setting up field hospitals and volunteering in the hospital.
​
This global opportunity will benefit the student RT's, providing us with an excellent educational experience, as well as providing health care to the people of Peru.
WHY HELP
-
Peru does not have access to the type of excellent medical care we have in Canada.
-
Developing countries cook and heat their homes with open fires. The inhalation of soot from these fires causes many pulmonary diseases.
-
Our small contribution will make a big difference in their lives and we will be rewarded by the influence we are able to have on their developing RT system.
-
It's a great hands-on learning experience for the students RT's.
