About Us
Team Canada Healing Hands is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the provision of rehabilitative education, training, and care in areas of need. Volunteers are medical and support professionals who work year long fundraising and organizing projects that typically culminate in 7-14 day intensive team missions internationally.
During each mission, volunteers both teach and provide care in rehabilitation clinics, prosthetic and orthotic clinics, hospitals and orphanages, as well as teach courses in rehabilitative therapy, public health and primary care, and specialized medical topics. We all stay together in a guesthouse (4-8 per room in dormitory style cots), and evenings and weekends are spent preparing equipment and programs for the coming days, participating in cultural events, team debriefings, and learning about our host country
