Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 9 day Medical/Dental/Public Health Hybrid Brigades throughout the year in Nicaragua. During a Medical/Dental Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors/dentists 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.
