On January 10, 2005 Paramedics For Children was asked by the Indonesian Minister
of Health to put together a disaster relief team to leave immediately for Indonesia. Our mission was to deploy to city of Medan, Indonesia,
and from there we were to be taken to the heart of the disaster near the town of Melabo. From Melabo we were transported
again to the village of Puloie. Once there we were able to set up our forward medical clinic. Once there, we got down to business and were able to treat hundreds of men, women, and children. The mission lasted for 13 days and was a great success. Pictured here on the left is the entire team with our Indonesian military escort. |
