BYU Undergrads Launch Non-Profit Healthcare Service for Native Americans

July, 2019
Jordan Jones is an Exercise Science major, and part of a group of undergraduate students at Brigham Young University who are passionate about healthcare and disease prevention for Native Americans. With the support of Dr. Rodney Badger, a practicing cardiologist in Elko, NV, the group kick-started a volunteer healthcare program, Western Reperfusion (reperfusion refers to the return of blood to tissues). The program’s mission is to provide free Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) education and screening to Native American reservation communities in the Intermountain Region. Jordan and his team are mentored by physicians and BYU professors who are passionate about caring for the health of the Natives within these historically marginalized communities.
