Hello all,
We hope everyone is braced for the tropical storm/hurricane coming our
way. We are preparing for some staff turnover of ex-pats and we had a
few outstanding items we wanted to address before this occurs. As
always we and the moderator for the group would appreciate
conversations off the list (send to Nish.suvarnakar@gmail.com). Of
course, any public resource should be shared.

Please respond directly to me (nish.suvarnakar@gmail.com) as opposed to clicking 'Reply.'
Our clinic recently had a fire. While no one was harmed, our propane refrigerator (the culprit of the fire) which housed our vaccinations was destroyed. We keep our vaccines in a propane fridge as our electricity here is not always reliable and the vaccines need to stay at constant low temp. We have decided that propane is still the way to go for this reason and are looking for organizations that could either donate a propane fridge or know where we can find one. We originally received our fridge from UNICEF but that was years ago and the contact info I have is no longer valid. Could anyone point me the right direction. Thanks in advance. Again please, respond off the list. Thanks
# Join a Medical Trip to Haiti to provide health care to patients at the Clinic (Clinique Sainte d’Esprit located on grounds of St. Charles Seminary in Croix des Bouquets, near Port au Prince)
* Medical professionals, including physicians, dentists, nurses, pharmaceutical representatives and other medical and health care support staff are needed.
# Team members may also support the students and staff of L’Ouverture Cleary School.
* All volunteers traveling to Haiti are expected to pay their own travel and lodging costs. Travel costs are estimated at $500 - $700 round trip, depending on city of origination as well as fluctuation in airfare costs.
* Once in Haiti, lodging is provided via the residence attached to the clinic and will comfortably accommodate 20 people. The residence includes a kitchen, which is used by the team to prepare daily meals. In order to maintain the residence, HMMOM recommends a daily individual donation of $30 to cover associated lodging and transportation.
* The clinic includes a number of examining rooms, an operating room, an ICU/RR, X-ray, a lab, and a dental/eye clinic. The clinic also includes a library/ classroom.
* While the clinic has a limited inventory of supplies in Haiti, medicines and supplies that are to be used for each mission trip are generally collected, packed and brought with the team for each trip. Any items not used during the trip are then added to inventory for future use.
* In addition to seeing patients at the clinic, the team may round at other facilities and work at other established clinic sites, including sites run by the Missionary Sisters and Brothers.
Medicines and Medical Supplies of all kinds.

Earthquake update posted on the Haiti Medical Missions of Memphis blog. "The clinic is in operation, however still damaged. Due to the overwhelming numbers of people, a triage area has been set up outside on the football field. The clinic is on a compound which uses well water and although it was disabled initially, it has been restored as of this morning. Fortunately, we recently installed solar panels and they are able to continue to generate electricity."

Hello all,
We hope everyone is braced for the tropical storm/hurricane coming our
way. We are preparing for some staff turnover of ex-pats and we had a
few outstanding items we wanted to address before this occurs. As
always we and the moderator for the group would appreciate
conversations off the list (send to Nish.suvarnakar@gmail.com). Of
course, any public resource should be shared.
These are not all explicitly medical but this list has an exceptional
knowledge base of Haiti and working there in.
-NEED ENT Doc: We are looking for an ENT specialist? We have a patient
who is a 29 year old with a slow growing neck mass (onset 2003) that
now has dysphonia. The ultrasound showed a submandibular cystic
lesion. Now i need a place to refer her for further evaluation. Is
there anyplace anyone knows of? Please me at nish.suvarnakar@gmail.com
Physicians/Physicians Assistants Needed: Our free primary care clinic
is always looking for volunteer physicians, and physicians
assistants. We provide room and board and three meals a day with
volunteers residing in either a private or shared (two-bed) dorm room
with private bathroom. Our clinic runs Monday to Friday and sees
emergencies on Weekends. If you know of anyone interested, email me.
nish.suvarnakar@gmail.com
Non-Medical: One of our employees is looking for assistance in getting
her daughter (with Haiti Passport) to the united states on a tourist
visa. He made it sound as if it would be faster to get a tourist visa
if an American was a guardian or sponsor. Has anyone on the list or
does anyone know of someone who has experience with the visa process
for minors? email: nish.suvarnakar@gmail.com
JOB OPPORTUNITIES: In seven weeks, I will be leaving my post as
Logistics and Program Coordinator for the Clinique Saint Esprit. We
are looking for someone to replace me for a 1-2 year term. The
position includes room and board and monthly stipend. A full job
description is on our new web site :

Information for Volunteers
Haiti Medical Missions of Memphis
Volunteer Responsibilities
* While working in Haiti on behalf of HMMOM, volunteers are expected to participate in a variety of activities which may include, but are not limited to: construction, painting, cooking, cleaning, medical and dental treatment to patients, making health-related presentations to children and adults and other activities as deemed necessary by the Executive Director, Mission Team Leader and/or Administrative Director.
* In order to maintain the integrity of the program’s mission and ensure the success of future missions, HMMOM has developed the following key requirements for all mission volunteers:
o The volunteer will report to the Executive Director and the Mission Team Leader or more immediate supervisors as designated by the Executive Director
o The Executive Director (and appointed staff) has ultimate authority for all decisions concerning the operation of the clinic, medical decisions made on behalf of the mission, and any other issues related therein.
o The Executive Director (and appointed staff members) has authority for decisions concerning emergencies, particularly illness of the volunteer necessitating hospitalization or evacuation to the United States, or danger to the volunteer in Haiti.
o The Executive Director, Mission Team Leader and/or Administrative Director in Haiti has authority to terminate the volunteers time of service immediately should this be necessary.
o In case of doubt and/or absence of the Executive Director, the Administrative Director in Haiti is the conveyor and interpreter of policies of Haiti Medical Missions of Memphis.
* While in Haiti, the volunteer agrees to the following:
o Will not participate in any political activity or public protest of any kind
o Will not engage in any potentially dangerous activities without the consent of the Executive Director, Mission Team Leader and/or the Administrative Director

The clinic is on a compound which uses well water and although it was disabled initially, it has been restored as of this morning. Fortunately, we recently installed solar panels and they are able to continue to generate electricity."

Haiti Medical Missions of Memphis
# Join a Medical Trip to Haiti to provide health care to patients at the Clinic (Clinique Sainte d’Esprit located on grounds of St. Charles Seminary in Croix des Bouquets, near Port au Prince)
* Medical professionals, including physicians, dentists, nurses, pharmaceutical representatives and other medical and health care support staff are needed.
# Team members may also support the students and staff of L’Ouverture Cleary School.
Travel and Lodging Costs
* All volunteers traveling to Haiti are expected to pay their own travel and lodging costs. Travel costs are estimated at $500 - $700 round trip, depending on city of origination as well as fluctuation in airfare costs.
* Once in Haiti, lodging is provided via the residence attached to the clinic and will comfortably accommodate 20 people. The residence includes a kitchen, which is used by the team to prepare daily meals. In order to maintain the residence, HMMOM recommends a daily individual donation of $30 to cover associated lodging and transportation.
The Clinic
* The clinic includes a number of examining rooms, an operating room, an ICU/RR, X-ray, a lab, and a dental/eye clinic. The clinic also includes a library/ classroom.
* While the clinic has a limited inventory of supplies in Haiti, medicines and supplies that are to be used for each mission trip are generally collected, packed and brought with the team for each trip. Any items not used during the trip are then added to inventory for future use.
* In addition to seeing patients at the clinic, the team may round at other facilities and work at other established clinic sites, including sites run by the Missionary Sisters and Brothers.
