In the first week of May a visit was made to the community of San Roque in the municipality of Esteli, with a team of seven specialties coordinated by the foundation and the MINSA, offering the population assessments and attention of internal medicine, dentistry, dermatology, pediatrics, general medicine and gynecology, as well as performing pap smears, family planning and covid vaccines.

There was a participation of 93 patients from different sectors of the community and 154 consultations, this because there are patients who choose to receive care with two or three different specialists. 15 tooth extractions were performed and each patient was offered his medication requested by the doctor

It is worth mentioning that each of the brigades we have had the accompaniment and unconditional support of medical and social work students of the FAREM-Esteli faculty, who carry out an incredible volunteer in providing their services of vital signs, classification and psychosocial attention, on the other hand the ICES project also participates in the detection of psychological cases and victims of domestic violence
