Adventist Hospital in Port-au-Prince Haiti

A report at the first link below is titled: Injured overwhelm Haiti hospital.

The earthquake rattled the foundation of the Adventist Hospital in the city's Diquini neighborhood, forcing patients and staff into the courtyard and lawn where they remained throughout the weekend.

A skeleton crew of doctors, accustomed to a 70-bed hospital with modern operating suites, rushed among 400 patients who made their beds on concrete walkways, gravel roads and bare patches of lawn outside the hospital.

These healthcare workers are heroically working in the face of impossible conditions and need our help.
