MSS Medical Brigade July 2014 Nicaragua



Emily's Message

I have wanted to be a nurse for most of my life. I have finally graduated from nursing school, and I recently took my state boards and passed!! The first thing I would like to do with my newly acquired skills is give back to others. I have been given an opportunity to help a third world country this July. I will be traveling to Nicaragua in order to help people who have extremely limited access to health care and medical treatment. I am asking for help in raising the necessary funds to make this Medical Mission possible. No donation is too small and every dollar counts. I am extremely grateful to anyone and everyone who is able to help make this mission a reality. I thank you for your time and support, and as always, if you have any questions, please let me know.

-Emily Milone, BSN, RN

Volunteer Activity Description

Volunteers on the Medical and Dental Brigades will be working closely together to provide quality health initiatives to a community that otherwise has limited access to health care. Volunteers will spend three days in a community in order to optimize the amount of time patients are able to spend with the physicians and dentists. Each patient will receive a physician consultation, teeth cleaning and a fluoride treatment as well as have access to pap smears, prostate exams and restorative dental care as necessary. Volunteers will have the opportunity to take patient vitals, obtain patient history and current symptoms, shadow and assist licensed physicians and dentists, participate in preventative education, and fill prescriptions under a licensed pharmacist. Volunteers will become familiar with the prevalent health issues in their community and learn about how to prevent and treat those illnesses. These brigades provide each volunteer with the opportunity to make a tangible impact on a specific community while gaining real life experience in the field of international medicine and dentistry
