Last week we were amazed and deeply grateful when a conversation between Charles Gattis, Sr. Pastor at Trinity UMC of Huntsville and his friend Regions Bank CEO Dowd Ritter led Regions Bank to contribute to our medical mission by transporting our medical team bound for Jimani and the PaP clinic on a Regions Bank company aircraft.
The first flight left yesterday morning with a team of eight doctors and nurses from Knoxville, TN (and one nurse from Huntsville) as well as the two i-STAT blood analyzers on loan from Abbott POC! The plane returned from the DR to Knoxville with medical folks who had been in Haiti for weeks.
The medical work in Haiti is absolutely overwhelming. Quality medical care was scarce even before the earthquake, and the ability to keep our medical teams fresh and provide trouble-free transportation is a huge boost to our medical mission. We're so grateful to the team that's stepping into the fray right now, to Abbott for the i-STATS, and that Regions stepped in to provide transport.
