Brigade Information

Dates: May 23 - May 31, 2015

Country: Nicaragua

Keck Graduate Institute is a chapter of Global Medical Brigades, an international movement of students and medical professionals working alongside local communities and staff to implement sustainable health systems. We work in remote, rural, and under-resourced communities in Honduras, Panama, Nicaragua, and Ghana that would otherwise have limited to no access to health care. Each community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are provided access to healthcare and volunteers deliver public health workshops. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends. In conjunction with our Medical Program, Global Brigades also supports communities with economic development, sanitation, and clean water projects and uniquely implements these programs in a holistic model to meet a community’s health and economic goals. Our model systematically builds community ownership and collaboratively executes programs with the goal of sustainably evolving to a relationship of impact monitoring. The KGI chapter is excited to partner with MDF Instruments on our brigade in 2023. With that in mind, we will donate all provided supplies to local doctors in our partner communities in Honduras. https://mdfinstruments.com/pages/crafting-wellness.
