HAITI: On January 12, 2010 Haiti was struck by a tremendous earthquake that caused extensive damage. NC Baptist
Men Rescue 24 responded accordingly with a medical team as requested by a mission in Haiti. Since that initial
team arrived, we have been sending teams to assist with the needs. Currently, we are recruiting medical teams to work in Haiti. A “team” is 6 people with at least 1 medically trained volunteer preferred. We will take individuals depending on current team dynamics.
The cost for the trip is $1,100 for NC residents which include airfare, in-country ground transportation, lodging,
meals, and accident insurance. Out-of-state volunteers will pay the cost of the airfare plus
$400 for logistics. Housing is in a compound that provides lodging, food, and security. A deposit of $500 is due
2 weeks after reservation to hold the week for the team. $500 is due from each registrant 90 days prior to departure. The full amount due 60 days prior to departure. The team deposit will be returned or distributed as directed by the team leader.
Medical teams will work mainly in mobile community clinics doing primary care. Some opportunities may exist for medical
specialties. Ideal team is 1 Primary Care Provider, 2 Nurses, and a Pharmacist. But, we are flexible! If you
have a specialty and would like to use it in Haiti, we will try to find a location for your work.
Typical trip begins in the US with a flight to Port-au-Prince on Sunday, return on the following Saturday.
Team dates are organized by week. Contact NCBM for available weeks.
