Austin College Medical Brigade May 2016 Panama
  1. Affiliated Organization: Global Brigades USA
  2. Program: Medical Brigades
  3. Chapter: Medical Brigades of Sherman
End Date: May 27, 2016 12:00 AM
Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Panama. 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. Brigaders will also participate in a WASH (Water, sanitation and hygiene) project on the penultimate day of the trip, which is similar to a Public Health Brigade.
