Dear Nursing Students,

Have you thought about experiencing healthcare in an international setting? Perhaps you have before, and are interested in another opportunity. If so, we wanted to let you know that we are offering a new faculty-led global health opportunity in rural Panama, which "goes live" this January.

We (Jill Proctor and Jesse Morse-Brady) traveled to Bocas del Toro, Panama this summer to work with Floating Doctors, and had an amazing experience meeting the team, patients, and community members. We are planning to return during the upcoming J-Term, and are offering this as a one-week study abroad opportunity for nursing and other health professions students. If you might be interested, you can find more information on the program here:

Global Seminar: Health: Integrated Care in Rural Panama

You are formally invited! Please reach out if you want to talk more, or if you have any questions for us.

All the very best,
Jesse and Jill
