Passionate About:

I am passionate about caring for others and making a difference, especially for the underserved. It is extremely rewarding to know that you are providing care to people who may have never had access to care before and that you are making a lasting impact in their lives. I am also passionate about educating people on the effects that nutrition and exercise make in our lives. I am so glad to have the opportunity to go to Nicaragua and leave an impact on the communities that we will care for there!

Arcadia Medical Brigade to Nicaragua March 2015



Volunteer Activity Description

Medical Brigade volunteers have the opportunity to shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists through a one week Medical Brigade in Honduras, Panama, or Ghana. Student volunteers can either join an existing Medical Brigades chapter on their campus or create their own chapter and recruit other volunteers. Each of our partner community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are treated and volunteers deliver public health workshops. 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.
