Handfuls of Hope partners with physicians, nurses, dentists, dental hygienists, opticians, and other medical professionals to help meet the medical needs of the underserved through medical mission trips. Our teams work side-by-side with local medical professionals who volunteer their time to help care for the poor. We provide medical attention in our makeshift clinic. For those who are physically unable to come to the clinic, we mobilize a smaller team to make house visits to different villages. Our team typically is onsite for 3-5 days, enabling us to care for thousands of individuals - men, women, and children. The clinic is a very busy clinic; we often see whole families at one time. We set it up in a way where nurses triage patients and follow protocol to treat them. If the patient needs to see a provider, the nurse will use clinical judgment to send to providers. On average, we can see anywhere from 400-800 patients/per day. The majority of care we provide is primary care.
