Passionate About:

Ever since a young child, I’ve dreamt of lending a helping hand to those in need. It makes me really happy to be able to put a smile on another individual’s face because I feel as though it’s a duty upon myself to help the less fortunate. I am very grateful for what I’ve been blessed with in this life and I find it only fair to share it with others. Given the opportunity to embark on this trip, I feel as though it’s the first big step for me in becoming a better version of myself in the future. This Lehman L.I.F.E trip will be a gateway for me to better understand a healthcare system apart from my own. Therefore, making it easier for me to understand patients of different backgrounds when it becomes my time to become a doctor God willing.
I'll appreciate it greatly if you can help me attain my goals in making a difference in this world. Thank You!

CUNY Lehman College Medical Brigade April 2018 Nicaragua



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.
