Understanding this problem, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cedarville.edu\/Academic-Schools-and-Departments\/Pharmacy\/Pre-Pharmacy\/Faculty-Staff\/Pharm-Pract\/Huston-Jeffrey.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dr. Jeff Huston<\/a>, Associate Professor of Pharmacy Practice in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cedarville.edu\/Academic-Schools-and-Departments\/Pharmacy.aspx\">Cedarville University School of Pharmacy<\/a>, will lead his 23rd trip to Honduras from May 7-17 with eight rising third-year professional pharmacy students.<\/p>\n<p>The team will partner with the Institute of Holistic Transformational Education in Nursing (IETI) in Choluteca, Honduras. The IETI was founded in 2017 and is the first and only nursing high school in Honduras. IETI is a year-round school. Students attend full days and biblical integration is a key component of the curriculum.<\/p>\n<h2>Stop the Bleed Training<\/h2>\n<p>Huston\u2019s team will teach IETI\u2019s students the Stop the Bleed program. Stop the Bleed is a worldwide initiative teaching people how to control massive bleeding.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-pullquote su-pullquote-align-left\">We see the impact of them taking ownership of their own healthcare through the nursing school and community health partners.<\/div>\n<p>\u201cAnyone in healthcare, education, manufacturing, agriculture, or any place people could be injured are taught Stop the Bleed,\u201d explained Huston. \u201cIt is such a great program, so we want to teach it to the nursing school in Honduras so that they can continue teaching it to the people in their community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stop the Bleed focuses on how to properly control bleeding by using hands, dressings, and tourniquets. The team will adjust certain aspects of the Stop the Bleed curriculum since Honduras doesn\u2019t have an emergency hotline like 911.<\/p>\n<h2>Educating Locals in Healthcare<\/h2>\n<p>Along with Stop the Bleed, the team will teach IETI students about medication calculations, blood pressure, blood glucose, fluoride treatments, and IV preparation. The team will also conduct local health fair screenings for blood pressure and blood glucose.<\/p>\n<p>This team is a part of twice yearly medical missions trips led by Huston to Honduras since 2006. Through the years, the goal of these trips has adapted and changed over the years to better serve the Honduran people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur initial goal right after Hurricane Mitch was to mass treat as many people as possible,\u201d described Huston. \u201cBut as Honduras\u2019 economy and living conditions have been improving, we want to educate the people on so they can help themselves without outside assistance. Essentially, our goal is to put ourselves out of a job. In doing so, we see the impact of them taking ownership of their own healthcare through the nursing school and community health partners.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Quality healthcare is vital for any country, but in Honduras, there is a 1-to-3,000 ratio of professional nurses to Honduran citizens.
