18 octubre, 2019
Supported by different institutions such as the Police and the Army, as well as professionals from different health specialties and others; Popayán’s branch carried out the 2019’s second semester Health Brigade. This time, the activity was developed at La Esmeralda Sports Center and was directed towards different elderly associations in the city, people with disabilities and underaged children.
Some of the services offered are: General medicine, speech therapy, social work, psychology, neuropsychology, physiotherapy, dentistry, respiratory therapy, aesthetics, legal advice, health promotion programs and disease prevention.
By developing these types of activities, the program seeks to impact the community where national health system institutions often cannot reach and the vulnerable population that really requires this type of intervention. This branch continues to work with constant commitment with Cauca’s communities.
