    Description

    Since 2022, Global Care Force has deployed recurring mobile medical teams to communities across southern Ukraine where conflict has disrupted access to essential healthcare services.

    Unlike many humanitarian organizations that make a single visit, our teams return to the same communities month after month, building trusted relationships with patients and local healthcare providers while delivering consistent, compassionate care.

    We are currently recruiting registered nurses to join our multidisciplinary volunteer teams and help provide primary healthcare, patient education, triage support, and compassionate care to individuals and families affected by war.
