The Nursing Heart Team

Visit the Nursing Heart website by clicking here to learn more about our history of supporting the health of Guatemalan families and helping Nurses grow in their practice!

Since 2011, Nursing Heart has partnered with underserved families in rural Guatemala to deliver dignified, preventative, and often life-saving healthcare.

We work in communities where access to basic health services is limited and poverty is widespread, yet families show extraordinary resilience and hospitality. Together, we focus on practical, high-impact care that strengthens long-term community health.

Our mission is twofold:

  • Improve the health of underserved families in Guatemala
  • Equip nurses to meet global public health challenges through immersive, field-based training

Through trusted partnerships with local leaders, NGOs, and visiting nurse cohorts, we provide direct care and health education while building sustainable community systems.

Impact to date:

  • 11,000+ acute care clinic patients treated
  • 14,200+ primary school wellness visits
  • 4,400+ women screened and treated for cervical cancer
  • 175 women have received life-saving cervical cancer treatment
  • 17 Community Health Workers trained to lead chronic disease prevention and management in their own communities

Every person deserves access to compassionate, competent healthcare. Your support helps make that possible.

Thank you for standing with us.
