Passionate About:

Thank you for everyone's help! I have reached my goal! If you would still like to make a donation, please send it to me directly, not through this website. You all made this happen and I am greatly appreciative!

I am passionate about helping people who are in need by providing healthcare, kindness, and compassion. I hope to heighten my knowledge and skills through this trip to Panama to become a better and more successful medical provider/Physician Assistant.

Samuel Merritt August 2012 Medical Brigade Panama
  1. Affiliated Organization: Global Brigades USA
  2. Program: Medical Brigades
  3. Chapter: Medical Brigades at Samuel Merritt University
End Date: Aug 23, 2012 12:00 AM
Volunteer Activity Message

Medical Brigade volunteers will set up temporary clinics in pre-identified communities in Eastern Panama to provide health care where access is limited. Each community receives a brigade every 3-4 months. Students on the brigade are given the opportunity to shadow licensed health care professionals while learning about local Panamanian culture. A typical Medical/Dental Brigade clinic consists of six stations: Intake, Triage, Consultation, Dental, Charla (health education), and Pharmacy. Electronic patient records are collected during the brigade to ensure patient follow-up as well as to monitor overall community health trends. Between brigades, the in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and conduct community health worker training aimed at empowering local leaders to perpetuate a consistent level of health care. For every student who volunteers on a Global Medical Brigade, sixty patients can see a doctor who otherwise would not be able to.
