Medical Alumni Brigade April 2019 Honduras

Alumni Brigades Honduras is a way for post-graduates and Healthcare Professionals to further their impact while working alongside local communities and staff to implement sustainable health systems. We work in remote, rural, and under resourced communities in Honduras who would otherwise have limited to no access to health care. Each community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are provided access to healthcare and volunteers deliver public health workshops. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.

In conjunction with our Medical Program, Global Brigades also supports communities with economic development, sanitation and clean water projects, and uniquely implements these programs in a holistic model to meet a community’s health and economic goals. Our model systematically builds community ownership and collaboratively executes programs with the end goal of sustainably evolving to a relationship of impact monitoring.
