Mercy PA Medical Brigade May 2014 Nicarauga



Alicia's Message

Hi Everyone!

Some of the students and professors from my Mercy College PA program, as well as myself are taking a trip to Ghana in May 2014. We will be traveling there for 10 days to provide medical care for the people of their community, as well as educating them and helping them build areas to obtain safe drinking water. We are trying to raise as much money as we can for medical supplies and would appreciate any donations that you may like to offer. There is no donation too small! This is a wonderful cause and we are all very excited to share this experience together! Thank you so much for all of your help and support throughout our journey!

Volunteer Activity Description

Global Medical and Dental Brigades in Ghana work alongside each other on a 10-day long brigade in under-resourced communities around the central region of Ghana. Each medical and dental brigade incorporates a public health portion at the end of the 4 clinical days. The 10-day medical and public health brigade provides volunteers with the opportunity to make a tangible impact on communities while gaining hands-on experience in the field of international medicine. Prior to travel, volunteers collect medicines, recruit health professionals and fundraise. Once in Ghana, the team will visit one partner community to administer a 4 day-long clinic and conduct health workshops. During clinical days, community members are able to consult doctors and dentists, fill any necessary prescriptions, receive necessary dental care, and sit-in on health education lectures.
