Grinnell College Medical/Dental/Public Health Brigade March 2015 Nicaragua



Ashley's Message

I chose to partake in this medical brigade because I am passionate about providing quality patient care to people across the world and am interested to see how medical procedures are carried out in Nicaragua.

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. 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. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
