Health Program
Within hours of the earthquake in Haiti, Red Cross staff and volunteers were administering first-aid to the survivors of this great tragedy. To date, the Red Cross has provided hundreds of thousands of people with medical support, which includes the deployment of Red Cross field hospitals.
Now, the Canadian Red Cross is supporting its relief and recovery operations in Haiti though a 5-year partnership with the CHU Sainte-Justine (Sainte-Justine University Hospital Centre), the Direction de la santé publique (Public Health Directorate) of the Agence de la santé et des services sociaux de Montréal (Montréal Health and Social Services Agency) and the Unité de santé internationale (International Health Unit) for an integrated health program for Haiti.
