Nicaragua, December 2014



Katelyn's Message

Hi! I have the great opportunity to attend a medical trip this December to Nicaragua with other University of Tennessee students through the organization Global Medical Training. As a team we will travel along side doctors to different villages to provide free medical treatment to the people in the community. This trip will not only give me experience in the medical field, which I one day hope to be in, but also allow me to fulfill my love of serving others. I would greatly appreciate any donations to help me make this trip. Thank you!

Volunteer Activity Description

Global Medical Training at the University of Tennessee is so excited to be a new student organization on campus! Read more about our chapter below, our mission, our trip, and donate if you feel inclined!

This December, the UTK chapter of GMT is headed to Nicaragua for a week long medical mission trip.

Global Medical Training is a non-profit humanitarian organization that provides free medical-dental services to underprivileged villages in Central America

GMT\'s Objectives:

- To provide, as a team, free Medical and Dental healthcare services, and free medicines to the needy in Latin America

- To teach students basic clinical skills, basic Medical / Dental knowledge, and the art of medicine, in preparation for and during implementation of the clinics

- To provide students with a first-hand experience of cultural, social, historical, and political life in these regions. We will discuss and integrate this into the medical process with our patients. Many issues will be discussed, e.g. the relationship of poverty, education, and Public Health to illness and well-being.
