Passionate About:

I am a second year nursing student at Maryville University, passionate about compassionately and selflessly serving others. My current goal is to raise funds for an upcoming service trip to Panama with Global Medical Brigades in May 2016. Here, we will provide health care for the people in rural communities of Panama who would not usually have the access to their basic health care needs.

Maryville University Medical/Dental Brigade May 2016 Panama



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.
