Patients at the Justinian Hospital, the 2nd largest public hospital in Haiti, suffer needlessly because the medical staff lacks reliable access to essential medical supplies. Problems of scarcity are compounded by poor management of existing resources. We are implementing supply chain improvements in the hospital depot, pediatrics, & mobile clinics that serve the poorest communities in Cap-Haitian. This will better match donations & the purchasing of medicines with the needs of the community
Patients at the Justinian Hospital and at mobile clinics in Cap-Haitian suffer needlessly for lack of adequate supplies. Doctors can't offer adequate care without the necessary supplies, equipment, and pharmaceutics. These essential supplies, equipment, and pharmaceuticals need to be purchased by Konbit Sante.
The project will dramatically improve Haitian doctors' ability to prescribe essential medicines when they are most needed. It will increase the supply and access to life saving medicines.
Essential medical supplies will be more readily available to Haitian clinical staff at the 250 bed Justinian Hospital serving 800,000 Haitians in the region. Supplies will be better managed and reach those most in need. Critical care will be more adequately provided with reliable access to supplies and equipment. Cholera, water borne diseases, pneumonia and other easily treatable illnesses will be reduced with reliable access to medicines and sanitizing supplies.
