International Health & Development Network (IHDN)

About the organization

Missions Agency / Non-Profit

IHDN is a volunteer medical missions organization based in Springfield, Illinois. Our vision is to use the earthly healthcare ministry of Christ as a model to reach out to the poor through provision of medical services, education, training, community development and sharing the gospel of Christ. We own and operate the IHDN Mission Hospital, an 80-bed hospital at Weta-Adzadokpo, in the Volta Region of Ghana. This hospital provides medical care to over 35,000 patients each year. We sponsor 2 medical mission trips to Ghana to assist with the work of the hospital and also teach and promote community development. The hospital is an elective destination for final year medical students interested in learning about Tropical Medicine and International Health. We provide clean water, build access roads and support village educational efforts as we share the love of Christ with the villagers.

We seek to recruit both short and long term healthcare workers to Ghana. This opportunity is best suited for those interested in using their skills and talents to advance God's kingdom.
