POV: you came for the placement… but left with so much more.

The culture, the people, the moments you didn’t expect, it’s these parts of the experience that stay with you long after you leave. As a nurse, it changes the way you see care, connection and what healthcare looks like beyond the systems you’re used to. It’s more than a volunteer program, it’s a perspective shift.

For nursing students and healthcare workers, this placement abroad in Nepal offers hands-on experience through a volunteer program, combining global health exposure with real cultural immersion.

There’s nothing like seeing the world through the eyes of those we serve. While in Nepal, our latest group of Nurses in Action volunteers visited the World Youth International School, and the experience was unforgettable.

From connecting with students to learning about local healthcare needs, every day offers inspiration, growth, and a deeper understanding of the impact of compassionate care.

We are so grateful for our volunteers’ dedication = thank you for bringing hope, health, and happiness wherever you go.

Our Nurses in Action volunteers have officially landed in Nepal!

They’ve completed orientation, settled into the community, and have started their placements at local hospitals.

From learning local health systems to stepping straight into hands-on support, our volunteers are already making meaningful contributions alongside local healthcare professionals. This is what the Nurses in Action program is all about - building skills, sharing knowledge and supporting communities where healthcare resources are stretched.

To Our Nurses in Action Volunteers - Thank You for 2025 ✨

This year, 113 nurses and healthcare professionals chose to step beyond their day jobs and into communities that needed them most.

Across Kenya, Uganda, and Nepal, YOU showed up - not just with skills, but with compassion, humility, and heart.

In 2025, you:
💙 Cared for hundreds of patients through hospitals, clinics, and community health camps
💙 Educated approximately 800 students per placement on hygiene, nutrition, sexual health, and mental wellbeing
💙 Reached the elderly, disabled, and house-bound through community outreach
💙 Supported health services across 3 countries, often in challenging and unfamiliar environments

But numbers only tell part of the story... Behind every stat is a patient who felt seen, a student who learned something new, a family who felt supported, and a nurse who chose to care beyond borders.

We are incredibly thankful and proud of each of you. Thank you for giving your time, your expertise, and your heart in 2025. We can’t wait to continue this journey with you in 2026.

Tag a colleague who needs this reminder… 💙

Long shifts, emotional days, little time to rest. It’s especially important this time of year to care for yourself too. Between holiday pressures, limited time with loved ones and caring for everyone else, don’t forget that you matter just as much.

Take a moment to breathe, sip that coffee, laugh at something silly, enjoy a treat, or just sit quietly and recharge. The little things add up and your wellbeing matters now more than ever.

This Christmas, let yourself rest, smile, and receive the same care you give every day. You’ve earned it.
