Passionate About:

I'm truly passionate about pursuing a career in nursing and providing healthcare to those who need it the most. I feel the most connected to pediatric patients, especially those who have cancer, because of what I have endured in my life. Since joining Global Medical Brigades at UCF, it has made me consider looking into being a travel nurse. By going on these brigades, it has confirmed that I am on the right career path and will continue to make an impact on peoples lives no matter what field of nursing I go into.

Volunteer Activity Message

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