l’hôpital général
January 10th, 2010
I mentioned the conditions at the General Hospital in my previous and sole post from when I was on the ground in Haiti. What happened since then was our visit at the end of the week with the donated supplies from Upstate University Hospital.
Most of our suitcases looked like this one, taking advantage of the old 2-checked-bags policy from when we originally purchased our plane tickets. The generous mass of supplies ranging from surgical kits to gloves was divided and placed directly into the inventory of 6 departments at L’Hopital General: pediatrics, orthopedic surgery, general surgery, anesthesiology, emergency, and urology. Thanks to all, for a desperate need was relieved.
