11/10/10: MSF treating increasing number of suspected cholera cases in Port-au-Prince, Haiti
EXCERPT: "At all of MSF’s own four facilities in Port-au-Prince, teams have treated an increasing number of suspected cases since Saturday, November 6. These facilities have more than 300 beds already set aside for treatment in cholera treatment centers (CTCs). MSF is currently constructing an additional 320-bed CTC in the Sarthe neighborhood, where the organization already maintains a post-operative care facility".

Sarthe: In February, MSF opened a new post-operative center in a converted soft drink factory in the Sarthe area of Port-au-Prince, with a potential capacity of up to 300 beds. 160 patients are receiving post-operative care – wound care, more specialized orthopedic or reconstructive surgery – in this structure. Handicap International physiotherapists are working in collaboration with MSF to optimize rehabilitation and patient adaptation to prosthetics. Mental health care is also provided. In addition, there are also 100 external consultations per week for post-operative care.
