Medical Staff Needed


Medical staffing opportunity in Haiti

EFCA TouchGlobal is looking for doctors and nurses to help staff clinics in the impacted areas in and around Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Although the emergent injuries following last month's earthquake have been treated, there are ongoing needs for clinical care in severely under served areas of Port-au-Prince. We are looking for general practitioners and pediatricians, along with nurses experienced in acute care settings to help treat Haitians suffering from both acute and chronic illnesses. There is an urgent need for a few doctors the week of February 21 and both doctors and nurses beginning March 6 and continuing. This window of opportunity to serve just opened and we do not know how long the need will extend. The cost will be $900 for a week, including all costs in Haiti, plus the airfare.

If you or someone you know want to learn more, please contact crisisresponse@efca.org.

This video was produced by a plastic surgeon and AMAZING Christian who was in Haiti during my time there. It is the best testimony so far that I have seen to capture both the sadness and the hope of the people there.
