Surgeries are basic sterilisations, tumors (common in Fiji) and sadly there are always injuries due to\u00a0RTA’s\u00a0as well as various other injuries.<\/p>\n

General checkups, vaccinations and treatments will be required<\/p>\n

Hospital Open Hours:\u00a0 Monday – Friday with 1\/2 day on Saturday and closed on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Volunteers will be met on arrival at the airport by one of the Trustees where you will be taken to the Hospital for a\u00a0 briefing and discussion on local customs and the basic operation of the facility. \u00a0Any medical protocols will be reviewed with them by the resident vet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
