Haiti is the poorest and least developed country in the western hemisphere. Due to lack of infrastructure, knowledge and clean water, diseases spread quickly and health care is lacking. Our partners at Haiti ARISE Ministries have a desire to see people in their community become healthier and suffer less. Our goal is to send teams of doctors and nurses to this area semi-annually to provide medical care to the surrounding community. These clinics typically see 800-900 people, with some patients needing follow up and even surgical care. Additionally, training and program oversight are provided to build up the local medical staff and clinic workers. A local dentist and laboratory staff treat over 12,000 patients per year. Medical teams from Canada are able to work alongside the clinic on a regular basis.

Medical clinics bless the south
Haiti Arise's medical team continues their work on the ground in the south. In November 2021, the medical staff went to the south and organized three mobile clinic days.
Day 1- They were in Camp Perren, and saw 119 patients with many cases like stomach inflammation, fever, pain and hyper tension.
Day 2- They went to Tobec and saw 77 patients who had similar sicknesses to those they saw in Camp Perren.
Day 3- They went to Jantillote and also saw 77 patients also with the same kinds of sicknesses.
Three others, two nurses and a doctor, all of whom live in the south, helped the staff.
The tour they did in the south helped the 3three medical personnel and also the patients become aware of the sicknesses they were facing that could cost them their lives. They were very grateful to receive the knowledge since having medical teams visit their area is not something they receive very often.
All their medical staff, along with Haiti Arise, gathered other equipment for this awesome work!
They hope next time to help even more people.
"We say thanks to Pastor Marc who presented this idea to us on his first meeting he had with our staff after the earthquake and thanks to Jason and Dr. Bob for the financial support they gave us and we'll keep praying so that more blessings will come on you guys' way. God bless!"
