THE PROGRAM
This course provides an experience in global community health care in the Amazon region of Peru. Students will apply assessment skills in planning and implementing health care to individuals and communities. The program will provide an excellent opportunity to analyze the cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors that can influence health care. Field trips will include an excursion on the Amazon River and a visit to the Sacred Valley of the Machu Picchu ruins nestled on the eastern slopes of the Vilcanota mountain range.
