Overview

Mission

Hospice of st. Joseph, a ministry of the diocese of norwich ct, is a community committed to working hand in hand with our haitian sisters and brothers in pursuit of a better life providing health care, education and hospitality services.

What it reported doing in 2010

Prior to the earthquake we operated an onsite medical clinic focusing on maternal and child health care 5 days a week. We were on pace to see 6000 patients for the year. After the january 12, 2010 quake, in which our leased building was destroyed, the clinic closed for 6 weeks. During that time visiting international medical groups operated in our courtyard working under tents and makeshift shelters seeing approximately 1800 patients in a 6 week period. In early march 2010 the clinic reopened on a 3 day a week basis and visiting medical and dental groups continued to work in cooperation with our medical staff. We also operate a nutrition program which provides food and nutritional education to 75 families in the neighborhood in which we are located. (see schedule o) after the earthquake we have worked with relief agencies to secure and distribute food and clean drinking water, 350 tents, 150 tarps, 70 cooking stoves and 100 blankets. Visiting psychiatric professionals were made available for trauma and grief counseling and we have embarked on art therapy program for the children. We have facilitated relocation of 41 families to the provinces outside of port-au-prince and support a clinic serving earthquake refugees.
