Passionate About:

Since joining my first brigade in 2015, I've absolutely fallen in love with Global Brigades. I have been volunteering internationally since I was 16, working in Kenya, Ecuador, Costa Rica, and now Honduras (twice!). However, of all the organizations I have worked with, Global Brigades by far has been my favourite. I love everything from its mission and values, to the holistic model, and GB's dedication to sustainable development. Feel free to message me with any questions! Looking forward to hearing from you future brigaders!

University Of Toronto Medical Brigade Honduras 2017



Volunteer Activity Description

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. 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.
