two cents
One of my colleges passed on some information from two of his friends who've just returned from Haiti. His words, "Conditions are as barbaric as it gets. There's nothing to work with, no anesthesia, no tools, no hardware, horrid conditions to operate. We're doing amputations with nothing and hoping for the best, it's all you can do."
It sounds like everything from nuts to bolts is needed. Being proficient at regional blocks would be a plus. Being able to give the families wound supplies would be helpful. It's got to be overwhelming trying to put something like this together.
You're getting some great recommendations, things I haven't considered. Thanks for doing this. Good luck.
