Almost Done!

Once you have completed this registration form you will be notified that your registration has been received and eventually whether or not you have been confirmed. Confirmations are based on date of registration and availability of space on the project. Medical professionals will be given priority as we cannot have free medical and dental clinics without their volunteered skills.

A fee of $350 per person/volunteer is required and includes your accommodations and two meals a day (breakfast and dinner). There is a restaurant at the hotel if you want to purchase lunch.

As a group we endeavor to fly into Nadi International Airport (NAN) together. After passing through customs we will board a chartered bus which will transport us to a local church who will supply a meal for us. Then, a three hour drive to Pacific Harbour where the accommodations, (each room accommodates 2-4 people, please tell us how many people in your party) the Yatu Lau Lagoon Hotel and Expo site are located. Transportation costs on island to be determined.

If you fly separate from the group you will need to make your own ground transportation arrangements. If you fly into Suva (SUV) then we can make arrangements to pick you up and transport you the 45 minute drive to Pacific Harbour. If you will be flying separate from the group, please send your flight itinerary to volunteer@shepcall.org (mailto:volunteer@shepcall.org) so pick up arrangements can be made.

Each volunteer working at the Health Expo site will be provided personal protection gear if needed. Medical professionals please bring your own scrubs or typical attire used when seeing patients.

Dentists, doctors and surgeons please bring headlamps for use during your procedures. The days are long and we see hundreds of patients so if your headlamps have rechargeable, swappable batteries it is very helpful.
