FROM THE SITE:
In response to the Haiti earthquake disaster, the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative (HHI) is playing a lead role in supporting the coordination of the Harvard-wide response including that of the Harvard-affiliated hospitals within Partners Health Care System. By leveraging HHI’s unique position as an academic and research center with long-standing ties to leading medical and public health personnel, HHI has been able to facilitate the deployment of more than 70 surgeons, emergency physicians, anesthesiologists and nurses to Haiti in the immediate aftermath of the earthquake.
Field emergency medical teams from Harvard hospitals are currently managing a post-operative field hospital at Fond Parisien on the Haiti-side of the border with the Dominican Republic. Harvard affiliated teams have performed hundreds of critical surgeries, and are working to meet the needs of thousands of injured survivors.
In addition to deploying medical and public health personnel and delivering plane loads of donated supplies, HHI is providing episodic situation updates detailing the Harvard-wide relief efforts. This includes tracking and reporting on all of the current activities of Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Children’s Hospital, and others as they continue to support Partners in Health and the humanitarian relief effort on the ground in Haiti. This level of coordination is a powerful testimony to the solidarity of the Harvard system in support of Haiti and our partnering organizations providing relief to those who are in desperate need.
The HHI Fond Parisien Disaster Recovery Center:
The Harvard Humanitarian Initiative has taken a lead role in coordinating a large displacement center and medical compound in Fond Parisien on the Haiti side of the border with Dominican Republic. The project is managed in cooperation with several academic centers and the American Refugee Committee. The camp, started by Hilarie Cranmer and Stephanie Rosborough, was created to accommodate the several hundred injured Haitian earthquake victims who underwent surgery in the nearby Dominican Hospital in Jimani. The displacement camp provides a temporary home for over 1000 injured Haitian survivors and their families, and provides a high level of medical and rehabilitative support.
