Elena Jaramillo

Passionate About:

Health care professionals are there for people on some of their lowest days. I love the idea that I be able to help people and impact their lives. In countries like Panama, people don’t have regular access to doctors and medicine. It is really incredible how Global Brigades helps these people and impacts their communities. I am very grateful to have been chosen to go on this brigade and cannot wait to give the people in these villages access to medicine that they would otherwise not get while being immersed in their community and culture. I hope to one day be an ER nurse so that I can impact the lives of people on a daily basis. I hope that you’ll consider supporting this cause and my journey. I need to raise $1895 by January. Thank you for your donations!

Volunteer Activity Message

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.
