Ep036 Starting an Overseas Health Non-Profit with Heather Hammerstedt, MD




The Hippocratic Hustle show

Summary: How do you start an Emergency Medicine program in a region without emergency rooms? How do you start an overseas non-profit? Heather explains how she and a few friends helped a rural community in Uganda start a non-profit, then grew into an entire program for training nurses and other health care providers to run the unit. It’s truly amazing how helping a community solve one small problem then grew into a larger and larger service. Learn how you can volunteer for this amazing program as well!
