Arcadia Medical Brigade to Nicaragua March 2015



Breanne's Message

Hey all! My classmates and I are headed to Nicaragua in March 2015 to help medically underserved families and individuals. It will be a great opportunity to help out persons in need, but also to practice my clinical and public health skills.
I was fortunate enough to be born and raised in Oak Park, CA to a great family with great schools, friends, a safe home, and good health. I am eager to help individuals who may not have all of those resources that we can sometimes take for granted. You can click on "Donate Now" to donate to my personal account (and you'll immediately get an electronic tax receipt). If I fundraise more than needed for myself, the extra money will be donated to purchase medical supplies for our trip. Anything helps!! Thanks for all of your support!! XOXO

Volunteer Activity Description

Medical Brigade volunteers have the opportunity to shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists through a one week Medical Brigade in Honduras, Panama, or Ghana. Student volunteers can either join an existing Medical Brigades chapter on their campus or create their own chapter and recruit other volunteers. Each of our partner community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are treated and volunteers deliver public health workshops. 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.
