Center de sante Notre-Dame de Lourdes cholera treatment center










Covsky and I had visit Sante Notre-Dame de Lourdes (CSNDL) at Grand- Bassin has a cholera treatment center that is made out of blocks. A nun from Canada is running the center. There are only two ONGs that is supporting the center MSPP and Plan Haiti. The villager donated this land to the church to built a CTU center. Before they had the land, MSPP have given them cholera tents. It have been two months since MSPP have given them supplies. The CTU is receiving 35 people per month but since Dec 1 they have not had any people. In the month of Nov, there were 35 people and 1 death. There are 2 nurses and 1 assistant nurse. Every time it rains, the rate goes up at the center. Father Fave Joseph has people educating the community.
