Iguana Squad is a non-profit organization that focuses on mission trips and service opportunities in Belize. This summer, Rita Rein will travel with a team of doctors, nurses, dentists and other volunteers on a medical mission trip. “The primary focus of this trip will be providing medical, dental, and vision care,” Rein said. She will serve as a clinical assistant with the squad, helping with routine procedures and taking vital signs. Rein is a medical assistant in the Emergency Department at Conway Regional Medical Center and will use her expertise during the trip to Belize. In addition to these clinical activities, the group will organize a bible school for youth and set up a general education school.
