Passionate About:

I have a genuine passion for helping people. I have traveled with Global Brigades on a trip to Panama previously, and it was an eye-opening experience. I fell in love with service, especially global service. I hope that through this trip, I can gain more experience with diverse populations and patient care as I wish to pursue my dream of being a Physician Assistant.

UNC Charlotte Medical/Dental Brigade March 2016 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.
