Camp Mamittuq is a health career camp that will be held from June 13-17, 2022 at NSHC’s beautiful Camp Nuuk, located near Safety Sound, east of Nome. Mamittuq in Inupiaq means 'heals'.

All travel, lodging, and food will be paid for. Students will be required to stay at the camp for the duration of the time. Solar showers, latrines, cots and/or bunks, as well as fresh water hauled from Nome will be available.
If an emergency occurs and you are unable to attend the camp, a flight will be purchased for you to return home. Students can be released to family in Nome only if prior arrangements have been made between the Camp Director and the parents.
