Dear Colleagues,
I am saddened to report at least two people are confirmed dead in buildings
on our grounds, and at least one is missing. Three of the buildings have
completely collapsed and our clinic and administration building is standing
but has not been accessed to assess the damage. Our guesthouse appears to
be intact, with running water, but a full assessment will be needed. Other
good news is the generator is operational.
In the next week we hope to have an action plan in place to start bringing
in rehab medicine teams.
Two of our six P&O staff are accounted for; still waiting word on the
remaining.
For all that have contacted me and have not had a response; please know I am
keeping a list and will be in contact soon.
Take care,
Al
