A medical mission group that travels to provide healthcare to underserved communities in Nicaragua.

03/31/2025

We are thrilled to share the incredible impact of SWOB's recent medical mission trip to Nicaragua! Over the course of the trip, we had the honor of treating over 500 patients, providing much-needed care to individuals and families in underserved communities.

From home visits to clinic days, we worked hard to bring health and wellness to people of all ages. Our first day was especially meaningful, as we held health and wellness clinics for children, teen boys and girls, and mothers and fathers—ensuring that every member of the family received the care they needed.

We are beyond grateful for the opportunity to serve and for the incredible team of volunteers who made this trip possible. Together, we’ve made a lasting difference in the lives of so many.🌍✈️🩺

Recap from Day 3 in Nicaragua: Yesterday was a busy day with home visits, clinic work, and eye vision stations. We treated over 100 patients once again. The most commonly prescribed medications were Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Diclofenac gel, Omeprazole, Albendazole, Amoxicillin, vitamins, and Hydrocortisone cream. We're gaining so much knowledge and hands-on experience!

Day 2 in Nicaragua!
We had an amazing time with home visits and the clinic. We saw the highest number of patients ever on the first day—over 100. The most common conditions we treated today included hypertension, GERD, diabetes, UTIs, muscle pain, headaches and upper respiratory infections.

Hello from Nicaragua!

We arrived safely and are settling in. I'll be posting daily updates, so stay tuned! It's been a busy day with our health and wellness fair, along with the "Mommy and Me" and teen boys/girls education classes.

We appreciate all of your ongoing support; none of this would be possible without you all!
