University of California Davis Medical Brigade June 2016 Honduras



Volunteer Activity Description

UC Davis' undergraduate, nurse practitioner and physician assistant students will be partnering with UCLA and UC Riverside's Public Health Brigade in this 9 day Hybrid Brigade, which combines the aspects of a medicine and public health.

During the clinic portion of the 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.

During the public health portion of the brigade, volunteers develop sustainable health solutions and establish a standard of health quality by emphasizing prevention and education. The Public Health Program achieves this goal by implementing in-home infrastructure projects, providing health education, and engaging community members. Each Public Health Brigade will work with individual families and community leaders with a focus on holistic and preventative health measures on both an individual and community-wide scale.
