HOLA!!

Day  3
Clinic Day!!! Started the morning setting up the clinic next to the policia (police). Each group treated 6-7 patients with diagnosis ranging from colds to fungi. It was a long and sometimes challenging day trying to assess the patients with the language barrier. Thanks to our interpreters for helping us through some of the more challenging words, like bacanos (volcanoes) instead of vaccunes (vaccines). Some of the students got to hold and play with some of the local children during some down time.
Dinner was muy bien. We got to enjoy some helado (ice cream) after dinner. Then home to prepare prescriptions for the pharmacist to review for the patients that we had seen that day even though all students were ready to call it a night.

Day 4
Changed to the church for our clinic as the people that run it decided to offer us their space. The building was a little nicer and had fans throughout to help us northerners to stay cool while the locals were in sweatshirts and hats. During lunch we walked to the local store to get ice cream and all payed a different price for the same items. Off to the mall for dinner and some competive games before bed.
