Clinic / School ; School / Clinic


Jean-Elie & Mona have decided that they will keep the clinic operating at a reduced capacity with Haitian nurses as long as school is not open. The Haitian Minister of Education is supposed to set a date for the re-opening of school but nothing has been announced yet.


Once the clinic is closed, the meds, other supplies, the water purification system and electrical system will be moved into the shed. 


By 10:30 this morning, 2 Haitian nurses at the clinic had already seen 30 paitients, including a pregnant woman who is having contractions. She has gone to the hospital.


Jean-Elie is looking for two large tents like the one donated and set up by the Stamford Police Department volunteers on Team 4. Jean-Elie has a friend who has given him space in his yard to use the tents for classrooms.


Is there anybody who can help make these tents appear? Please let me know.
