Thank you. It means a lot. I will forward your post on to her. Thanks again.
The ambulances at auction will be “bare” not equipped .. I would think a well equipped local clinic to stabilize a patient would be far more beneficial , transport could be by private car or van ,, plenty of Toyota and Mitsu taxi/vans in the cities of Haiti..
IV fluids and antibiotics, trauma care and heart attack drugs and such should be the number one priorities .. for stroke you take a 50/50 chance and give the patient strong coffee and a big glass of rum .. if the stroke is from bleeding they die (no real change in outcome) , if it’s from a blockage they are helped immensely and you buy them time to get to a hospital. Heart rate/by/o2 monitors can be bought cheaply as refurbs ... In US hospitals EVERYTHING has an expiration date on it ,, even things that don’t go bad like bandages and plaster ... your friend should be able to hook up with a hospital chain to get their expired supplies.
