Passionate About:

Last year I went on a mission with Global Brigades to Nicaragua and it was the most incredible week of my life thus far. I'm passionate about making others happy and enacting positive change and thoughts. This trip to Honduras in May 2016 will be yet another humbling and amazing experience. I cannot wait to learn from the doctors I will be assisting and hope this will further my love for medicine and my passion for healthcare.

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.
