Adventiste 'Ospital...

Dr. "Joe" and I went to the "Adventisite 'Ospital today..." we spent about 6 hours there, I was the only "OR Nurse" there! Nurses are needed desperately! Not only at Medishare, but in the surrounding hospitals!

Took a 1.5 hour tour thru the city of PaP to get there... truly unbelievable! I took a tour in February vicariously... thru those in my team that got out into the city... Today... first hand... Not much has changed! Tent cities everywhere, a lot of destruction and devastation...

Our driver took side streets to "avoid" traffic... the emergency blinkers were on, which actually commands some respect from the Haitian people... along with a few well placed blasts on the car's horn...From Adventiste... we took two patients back with us to Medishare... Try cramming 7 people into an SUV designed to carry 5... add a long spine/back board, personal belongings, hang two IV's, and keep a Styrofoam container lid on as one speeds 40+ mph thru PaP becuase the windows are down and it is much cooler than trying the A/C...

Sry... not a lot of pics...
