Just out of our transport, Dr. Mike, from Boston, gives our team our first look at the reality of the environment. Nearly 400 patients depend on the volunteers and staff medical teams to provide top notch care in suboptimal conditions. Patients were moved yesterday from the schools (schools back in session come next week, which is a great thing!) to newly set up tents. The problems of sanitation, room, and board will soon become a focus as these are entities that the older faciiities (a previously 73 bed hospital) were not anticipating.
