An
important part of the planning for every PazSalud General Medical Mission is preparing
the local volunteers for the 6-day experience of hosting and executing a
large-scale medical event for their community. This generally involves multiple meetings of team-building
exercises and training sessions to help them identify their volunteer roles and
what their specific tasks will be in addition to an orientation on the overall
project.
To
begin the process, I recently met with local volunteers to explain who PazSalud
is, what we do and what our medical missions typically look like. I will build on this meeting with our
local coordinator and try to meet with the volunteers on a regular basis until
the start of the mission.
