Review for OBAT Helpers USA, McLean, VA, USA
I spent two weeks volunteering alongside top rated doctors and specialists from Malaysia, New Zealand, India, USA, Germany and Norway. My time was at the Kutapalong Camp in Bangladesh, outside Cox's Bazar. I assisted the team in triage and taking vitals of all these dear, grateful Rohingyan refugees. The clinic was so well organized with their own fully equipped pharmacy, ED and even had their own monitoring room for ultrasound, extensive tests etc. The days were exhausting yet so very rewarding. OBAT in the USA were extremely professional and on board with streamlining and supporting the operation and medical teams on the ground there at Camp 4. Even at the 11th hour, OBAT staff in Indianapolis facilitated my entry with an invitation letter into Bangladesh to support their medical team. I'm so very grateful to have the opportunity to volunteer in Bangladesh. I'm making plans to volunteer again before the end of this year. Thank you to all the local Bangladeshi staff, the Rohingyan translators and entire support team in the USA for helping these beautiful displaced people.
