Passionate About:

I have learned first-hand that nursing is all encompassing: it is more than just skills, hospitals, and medications. As Florence Nightingale said, \\\"nursing is an art,\\\" and one must have the passion to create masterpieces. The passion and dedication to helping others have motivated me to seek numerous opportunities to make a difference. Reaching out to those in need is as simple as extending a hand.

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.
