Passionate About:

Living abroad throughout my childhood has sparked a deep passion for travel. I believe that exposure to and learning about different cultures of the world has helped me develop a strong sense of empathy and understanding; two aspects of my personality I plan to continue developing and diversifying as I pursue a career in medicine. I am passionate about helping others because I believe that those who have the ability have a moral obligation to do so. I sincerely appreciate any help and support with my newest initiative to travel to Honduras

Miami University of Ohio Medical Brigade May 2016 Honduras



Volunteer Activity Description

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
