Passionate About:

The mission of Global Medical Brigades is not only about providing basic and preventative care to those who are unable to access it, but to help volunteers like myself learn more about cross-cultural health systems in relation to our own. As a future medical practitioner, I will take this perfect opportunity not only to learn more from a top down perspective of how medical resources are distributed in relation to their local and cultural context but how my passion and life-long goals fit into a future career in medicine.

Volunteer Activity Message

Medical Brigade at Washington University St. Louis is a chapter of Global Brigades, the world's largest student-led global health and sustainable development organization. The WUSTL chapter systematically works with more than 300 other university groups around the world to deliver and implement one of nine skill-based programs that benefit more than 130,000 Honduran and Panamanian community members annually.

WUSTL Global Medical Brigades develops sustainable health initiatives and provides relief where there is limited access to healthcare. Each community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are treated and volunteers deliver public health workshops. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trend.
