Health Foundations - Spring Cleaning
These days, spring cleaning is taking on a whole new meaning for all of us and the mountain communities of Honduras are no exception. Recently, the Brigade's Honduras operations director, Nelson Martinez, spent time in the villages of Planes de la Nueva Esperanza, San Antonio, and Veracruz tackling a number of important priorities.
Working with community health workers (CHWs), our team helped them to establish clinic schedules for consultations, meetings, and cleaning assignments. The CHWs hope to meet with individual members of the villages, checking in with expecting mothers and speaking with families about proper hygiene for children. Nelson also delivered talks about personal and community hygiene, especially as it relates to stopping the spread of COVID-19.
