Our goal is to expand the scope of our mission work with Operation Straight Spine so that we can provide surgical sessions for increasing numbers of patients on a half yearly basis. This will require increasing the number of volunteer medical staff needed to travel abroad. Our goal is to have a pool of volunteers from locally in West Bengal or India or abroad that would allow us to send a full medical team for the Mission in India every 6 months. Ideally each team would only be needed to travel once each year.

Needed volunteer staff include:

  • Spinal surgeons (Orthopaedic and Neurosurgical)
  • Anaesthesiologists
  • CRNA’s
  • Scrub Nurses
  • PACU Nurses
  • Orthopaedic ward nurses
  • Neurosurgical ward nurses
  • Circulating Nurses
  • Certified Surgical Technicians
  • Implant technicians
