Dear Friends,
As the magnitude of the tragedy in Haiti continues to unfold, Mercy has identified ways that our employees and volunteers can support the relief efforts. Several staff have volunteered to travel to Haiti with Catholic Health East’s Global Health Ministry to deliver medical care and work to rebuild the Hospital St Francis de Sale in Port au Prince. We also are working with our local healthcare partners to potentially bring patients to Maine for surgery. Mercy donated medical supplies and equipment, which were picked up by International Medical Equipment Collaborative (IMEC). IMEC sent four containers to Haiti this week and will help to re-equip the clinics and hospitals in the coming weeks.
Sincerely, Eileen Skinner, President and CEO, Mercy Health System of Maine
