Nicaragua, December 2014



Sarah's Message

I'm so incredibly blessed to be heading back to Nicaragua on my second medical mission trip this upcoming December! After returning from my first trip last December, I was inspired and even more determined than ever be have a career related to the medical field. With the desire to share my experience and passion, three other students and I immediately began to organize and implement the first GMT chapter at the University of Tennessee. I'm so proud and excited to now have a chapter that has grown to over 150 active members. This upcoming December, as a chapter founder, I will lead a 45 member team traveling to Nicaragua on our chapter’s first medical mission.

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.
