Sixteen volunteers from all over the United States arrived in Managua, Nicaragua yesterday for GivingMore's fourth Medical Brigade to Las Salinas. This year's team is made up of six emergency physicians, a physician assistant, a nurse practitioner, two dental hygienists, a pediatric ICU nurse, two ER nurses, an interpreter/technician, a pharmacist, and a psychologist. The team loaded up three vans with twenty-five boxes of medications and supplies, and drove four hours to southwest Nicaragua last night. This morning, the supplies were unloaded and organized at FIMRC's medical station in Las Salinas. Tomorrow we will be working at two separate clinics, we will be teaching CPR courses, and delivering medications to the local hospital in Rivas.
