Passionate About:

I am passionate about promoting the well-being of the individual as a whole by caring for all aspects of health, including physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, and social elements. By studying psychology on a pre-medicine track, I hope to develop my own personal mastery of medicine through a multi-dimensional approach to caring for patients of all backgrounds and demographics, that focuses especially on physical and mental wellness.

Notre Dame Med/Dent Brigades Jan 2014 Nicaragua
  1. Affiliated Organization: Global Brigades USA
  2. Program: Medical Brigades
  3. Chapter: Medical Brigades at the University of Notre Dame
End Date: Jan 13, 2014 12:00 AM
Volunteer Activity Message

Volunteers on the Medical and Dental Brigades will be working closely together to provide quality health initiatives to a community that otherwise has limited access to health care. Volunteers will spend three days in a community in order to optimize the amount of time patients are able to spend with the physicians and dentists. Each patient will receive a physician consultation, teeth cleaning and a fluoride treatment as well as have access to pap smears, prostate exams and restorative dental care as necessary. Volunteers will have the opportunity to take patient vitals, obtain patient history and current symptoms, shadow and assist licensed physicians and dentists, participate in preventative education, and fill prescriptions under a licensed pharmacist. Volunteers will become familiar with the prevalent health issues in their community and learn about how to prevent and treat those illnesses. These brigades provide each volunteer with the opportunity to make a tangible impact on a specific community while gaining real life experience in the field of international medicine and dentistry.
