Haiti earthquake response: April 2024 - June 2024

By Consuelo Alzamora | Co-founder

During the months of April to June 2024, the Fondation Tous Ensemble Rehabilitation Center in the South of Haiti has continued to provide essential rehabilitation services. As one of the only rehabilitation centers in the region, we serve an average of 60 patients daily, with a significant increase in patient numbers due to the displacement crisis.

Activities and Achievements:

  • Physical and Occupational Therapy Sessions: We conducted 2,740 consultations, providing vital therapy to our patients.
  • Internship Program: We facilitated internships for Occupational Therapy (OT) and Physical Therapy (PT) students, fostering the next generation of healthcare professionals.
  • Prosthetics and Orthotics Fabrication: Our skilled team fabricated 77 orthotics and 2 prosthetics, giving patients greater mobility and independence.
  • Clubfoot Treatment: We provided 72 consultations and treatments for clubfoot, ensuring better outcomes for affected individuals.
  • Assisted Devices Delivery: 62 assisted devices were delivered to those in need, enhancing their quality of life.
  • Training for Amputee Patients: We held training sessions for 34 amputee patients, equipping them with the skills to navigate daily challenges.
  • Participation in Health faire in Les Cayes: our team evaluated and treated more than 40 patients. 

Patient Statistics:

  • New Patients: We welcomed 169 new patients during this period.
  • Monthly Average: We served an average of 300 patients each month.
  • Child Patients: 33% of our patients are children, highlighting the critical need for pediatric care.

The ongoing displacement crisis has led to an influx of patients, increasing the demand for our services. Your support is essential for us to continue providing high-quality care to the thousands of people who depend on us.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to our donors. Your generosity enables us to maintain our operations and support the health and well-being of countless individuals in Haiti. Together, we are making a significant difference in the lives of those in need.

Thank you for your continued support.
