CUNY Sophie Davis Med Brigade Ghana August 2013



Dubem's Message

The world of medicine is changing daily. As an up and coming aspiring doctor, I feel privileged to have the opportunity to witness the vital impact of modern medicine. My goal and passion has always been to spark a change in the lives of many, whether it is the people of today or my future patients.

Volunteer Activity Description

Global Medical and Dental Brigades in Ghana work alongside each other on a 10-day long brigade in under-resourced communities around the central region of Ghana. Each medical and dental brigade incorporates a public health portion at the end of the 4 clinical days. The 10-day medical and public health brigade provides volunteers with the opportunity to make a tangible impact on communities while gaining hands-on experience in the field of international medicine. Prior to travel, volunteers collect medicines, recruit health professionals and fundraise. Once in Ghana, the team will visit one partner community to administer a 3-4 day-long clinic and conduct health workshops. During clinical days, community members are able to consult doctors and dentists, fill any necessary prescriptions, receive necessary dental care, and sit-in on health education lectures
