Global Brigades Honduras offers Medical Brigades for volunteers to provide quality health initiatives to a community that otherwise has limited access to health care. During a medical brigade, each patient will receive a physician consultation, and have access to pap smears, prostate exams and restorative dental care as necessary. 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. Medical Brigade volunteers also participate in the clinic's dental station. In the Dental Station, volunteers will intake patients, assist licensed dentists with restorative care and extractions, sanitize equipment, and give a dental Charla. 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. 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.
