I went on a trip with CFHI, and although it was a good trip, it was 100% comprised of students and was really geared toward an educational experience where students shadowed or observed practicing clinicians.  Most of the students, at that, were pre-med (2 were PA students) and had no clinical or medical experience. Although this was a great opportunity for students, it meant that actual clinical work was *extremely* limited. Checking blood pressure was considered a big clinical opportunity. Again-it was a good experience, but I would not recommend CFHI for a practicing clinician looking to actually do some “work”

I’m not sure about the dates, but peaceworkmedical.com often does short trips and is PA run
