Diana's Message

Hello Everyone!

I would like to start by thanking you for taking interest in donating to such a great cause. I have always dreamed of going on a mission trip to help a 3rd world country and I'm excited to use the knowledge I have gained to make a difference. On this medical brigade we will not only provide medical care, but teach and train the community to provide for themselves once we are gone. My personal goals for this mission trip are to demonstrate compassion by providing healthcare care for a community that has always been close to my heart. Any donation is appreciated!!

Thank you!!

Volunteer Activity Description

Volunteers on the Medical and Dental Brigades will be working closely together to provide quality health initiatives to a community that otherwise has limited access to health care. Volunteers will spend three days in a community in order to optimize the amount of time patients are able to spend with the physicians and dentists. Each patient will receive a physician consultation, teeth cleaning and a fluoride treatment as well as have access to pap smears, prostate exams and restorative dental care as necessary. Volunteers will have the opportunity to take patient vitals, obtain patient history and current symptoms, shadow and assist licensed physicians and dentists, participate in preventative education, and fill prescriptions under a licensed pharmacist. Volunteers will become familiar with the prevalent health issues in their community and learn about how to prevent and treat those illnesses. These brigades provide each volunteer with the opportunity to make a tangible impact on a specific community while gaining real life experience in the field of international medicine and dentistry.
