Volunteer Activity Description

Start Date: May 21, 2023 12:00 AM
End Date: May 27, 2023 12:00 AM

Medical Brigades @ GT will be traveling to Honduras for a 7-day Medical Brigade through Global Brigades. 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.
This brigade is led by the following individuals: Savi Agarwal (Chapter Leader), Hannah Cho (Vice President), Leon Cheng (Fundraising Chair), Zihan Chen (Treasurer), and Trisha Gupta (Media Advocacy Spokesperson). Please reach out to them if you have any questions regarding our brigade and how you can get involved. Be sure to follow our social media (@gtmedbrigades) and visit our website (bit.ly/Gmbsite)!
