Decreasing disparities. Learning how to help all ages of people while being culturally sensitive in all communities that I come across. I am currently researching how to increase access to healthcare for my bachelor's degree. Access to healthcare is a challenge for a great percentage of the global population.

Southwestern Oklahoma State University Medical May 2019 Panama



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.
