Emilie Maggipinto

Durham, New Hampshire

Passionate About:

I am a sophomore at the University of New Hampshire and I will be applying to be an Occupational Therapy major. I love kids and hope to work with them in my future. I played soccer for my entire life before college and I enjoy to have fun and play intramurals here. I also love to snowboard with friends in the winter. Family and friends are extremely important to me, so college has been quite an experience missing old friends and family but making so many new friends. I really enjoy outdoor activities and I love traveling because of all of the places my parents brought me and my brothers as we grew up. I hope to continue to travel and see the world as much as possible. Going to honduras and seeing how other people live while providing them with medical assistance will be an amazing experience.

Volunteer Activity Message

Medical Brigades of New Hampshire is a discipline of Global Brigades, the world's largest student-led global health and sustainable development organization. The Medical Brigades of New Hampshire chapter systematically works with more than 350 other university groups around the world to deliver and implement one of nine skill-based programs that benefit more than 130,000 Honduran, Panamanian, and Ghanaian community members annually.

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.
