Passionate About:

I'm a student at CMU and I'm passionate about the medical field. I work as an EMT at Mobile Medical Response and am majoring in Biomedical Sciences and Neuroscience. I'm passionate about traveling, I love to help people (especially children) and want to make a difference. During this trip, a group of 45 CMU students including myself, set up a medical clinic for an under served community in Honduras. We will be working hand-in-hand with doctors, dentists, and community members. I am fundraising to help pay for my travel expenses including the flight, passport, vaccines, and lodging. Our group also pays for the medical supplies we bring, which includes vitamins, antibiotics, toothbrushes and other personal hygiene supplies. Any help is greatly appreciated!

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.
