Volunteer Travel Ecuador

Medical/Healthcare projects

The healthcare industry in modern-day Ecuador is less than developed, often offering sub-par facilities to its ailing citizens. Rustic Volunteer Travel’s Medical/Healthcare Project in Ecuador is the ideal project for anyone considering a career in the healthcare and/or nursing field as well as individuals interested in the subject of alternative medicine. Volunteers can make a genuine contribution to staff working within Ecuador’s hospitals, health clinics and NGOs. Volunteers are needed throughout the entire country of Ecuador to assist the populations residing in the poorest urban and rural areas.

Fact File Ecuador

Arrival Point:

Quito International Airport

Airport Pick-up:

Upon the receipt of your flight information, our in-country coordinator or other project staff will greet the volunteers in the airport and take you to your project site. The address and telephone number of the local contact hotel will be given before departure just in case volunteers miss our representative in the airport. Please make sure to e-mail your flight information to both the USA office and the local in-country coordinator's office.

Departure Point:

Quito International Airport

Airport Drop:

Rarely, a few do request an escort back to the airport; this is an extra expense of about $75.  Most are very familiar and comfortable with their stay and have great ease taking their own taxi or bus back to the airport.

Internal Transportation:

Rustic Volunteer Travel manages one-way transportation to project. Volunteers will be responsible for their own personal and return travel. We do not cover daily transportation from host family/hotel to the project. Volunteers will be responsible for their personal and return travel. Our program is designed to save you the volunteer as much as possible.

Rustic Volunteers/Travelers coming to Ecuador are advised to arrive one day before their program start date. If you arrive more than one day early or stay after the program, you will be responsible for your room and food expenses.
