Shadow Program
In partnership with the University of Zagreb Medical School in Croatia, The Shadow Program allows medical students in their last year of education to deploy with TEAM5 and receive hands-on experience treating patients under the instruction of the practitioners. Nightly lectures on the unique case studies by different cadres and personal training on safety and security while traveling abroad. This is a chance of a lifetime. But, only five students are selected a year, so it's quite competitive.
Requirements include:
Current a student at a medical university
In your 4th or 5th year, of course.
Competitive GPA
Physically fit
Team player
The cost depends on the location (Travel, lodging, and food) and a small donation to the program.
Dr Saskia, a former student who is now a practicing physician, coordinates this program. Make sure to reach out to her for all the details on how to apply.
