Port-au-Prince - The Emergency Response Unit of Emirates World Humanitarian Mobile Hospital continues giving medical and health services to over 120 sick and wounded people in Haiti.
The mobile hospital, working under the instructions of President HH Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan has attracted a lot of patients who came from various areas of the capital for treatment and free health care after the recent devastating earthquake that hit their country.
The hospital has supplemented the role played by UAE Red Crescent Authority (RCA) to meet the requirements of the earthquake victims in Haitian, support and assist them through ongoing relief operations.
"Most of the cases reached the hospital are suffering from fractures, serious injuries, deformities of bones, infectious diseases and poor nutrition for children as well as respiratory diseases, chest, high blood pressure, diabetes etc., said Dr. Adel Al Shameri, Executive Director of the hospital.
Emirates Mobile Hospital was set up in line with the humanitarian and charity work being given by the UAE in many countries across the globe in partnership with the ministries of Health in the host countries.
"The medical neglect of many cases could have caused complications that could have led to permanent disabilities and deformities, but thanks to the medical team of Emirates World Hospital and their timely and appropriate action." said an official. - Emirates News Agency, WAM
