HCJB Global Hands sent a seven-member emergency medical response team from Ecuador to Port-au-Prince on Friday, Jan. 15, providing much-needed help to survivors. The team, led by International Healthcare Director Sheila Leech, worked in partnership with Samaritan's Purse. Team members spent 10 days in Haiti before leaving for Miami on Jan. 25 and returning to Quito the following day. The team was based at a 100-bed hospital in Port-au-Prince operated by Baptist Haiti Mission. Although the primary goal was to bring medical aid and clean water to the injured, the team also addressed people's spiritual needs. Support of HCJB Global's efforts included medical supplies and basic necessities such as sleeping bags, flashlights, tents and emergency water filters. While Samaritan’s Purse continues to stand in the gap at BHM with physicians and nurses, HCJB Global Hands is making plans to send another team to Haiti in several weeks.
