HealthServe is on a journey to make healthcare affordable and accessible to our migrant brothers. Last year, HealthServe reached over 119,000 migrant workers, offering them holistic healthcare, social services, assistance and programmes aimed at uplifting the migrant community in Singapore.

As HealthServe expands their services, they’re recruiting medical volunteers. Roles include:
– Dentists
– Doctors (GPs and Specialist Doctors)
– Dispensers (nurses, pharmacists, or pharmacy technicians)

Donating three hours of your time each month can help make a difference to the health and wellbeing of our migrant workers.
