A Clinic opens in L’Acul:

The recent art sale at Trinity Church was a rousing success, grossing over $8000 to support the extremely important medical initiative.

While almost everyone in the United States these days is debating over the trillion-dollar bill on health care, Haiti spends about $83 annually per capita on health care.

The new clinic, which opened on June 5, 2009, provides the very first medical care that many of the people of Chermaitre will ever have received. Dr. Mona Alexis treats about 80 patients over two days, once a month, at the clinic’s location in the neighboring village of L’Acul.

The maladies Dr. Alexis treats consist mostly of diarrhea and malnutrition, hypertension, skin infections, genital infections, respiratory infections, gastric disease and diabetes. She also tests patients’ blood sugar levels, and checks for malaria. The clinic is a short, one-hour walk (two hours for us!) from the village of Chermaitre.

There are 25 physicians and 11 nurses per 100,000 people in Haiti. Only one-fourth of births are attended by a skilled health professional. Most rural areas have no access to health care, making residents susceptible to otherwise treatable diseases. Haiti also has an incredibly high incidence of Tuberculosis and HIV. These are but a few of the staggering statistics surrounding health care in Haiti.
