University of Maryland, Baltimore Medical/Dental Brigade January 2015 Honduras

Courtney's Message

Hi, thank you for visiting my page!

In January of this year I was blessed with the opportunity to travel to Honduras with other pharmacy, medical, dental, nursing, and social work students from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. It was an amazing experience and I have been given the opportunity to go again for another week long brigade in January 2015! Our organization works to provide healthcare and dental treatments to people in rural communities with limited or no access to healthcare. If you are interested in learning more about what we will be doing in Honduras, please don't hesitate to contact me!

Please join me in supporting those who are in desperate need so that we can improve global healthcare! I would greatly appreciate any donations you can give. We are also accepting donations of medical supplies and over the counter medications. Thank you for taking the time to read this and visit my page!

Volunteer Activity Description

Global Brigades offers 7 day Medical Brigades for volunteers to participate in throughout the year. 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.
