How Doctors Worldwide Works

Doctors Worldwide has three different "teams" that make the organization helpful on a worldwide spectrum. First, there is an "emergency response" team that responds quickly to world emergencies, such disasters both natural and created by man. Second, there is another portion of the organization that treats and attempts to prevent disease outbreaks and infections created by a hazardous living environment. Third, there is a group that works in areas for extended periods of time, often working with and alongside native doctors. This group also focuses on "rehabilitating" communities and re-building a health-care system, in such ways as establishing clinics and training local doctors and health-care workers.
