Volunteering at medical camp

I am not biology or any medical student, as I undertook this activity. It is just that I like providing a helping hand to people. I love to help people because it gives me immense pleasure and happiness when the other people are happy. As planned we were going to provide our help as volunteers at a local medical check up camp organized by the Nagarjuna Medical Trust, at a local society in the city. Mrs. Preeti Mesharam, one of the doctors in the medical camp is a specialized eye surgeon. I was given the duty along with my classmate Shafqat, to provide a helping hand to Mrs. Preeti Mesharam at the point where she had been performing the eye checkups. Different doctors were allotted different rooms to perform their checkups. 

                    

                The check up was conducted by the trust for the residents of the society and was free of cost. We had to assemble all the people who were coming for the check up according to their form number and name outside the check up room and call them one by one whenever their form arrives. Many a times people were getting annoyed by the delay that was happening as there were a lot of people who had come for the check up and it was getting difficult to handle so many people at a time by just the two of us. For our help we called our friend stanis as he was done with his volunteering and was ready to help. Through this activity we learnt a lot of new things and we reflected on many of the CAS learning outcomes that we need do during the CAS program. The learning outcomes I achieved through this activity included working collaboratively with others, showing perseverance and commitment on the activity and also engaging with a social and issue of global importance.
