Helping Haiti

Dr. Victoria King, Chief Medical Officer at St. Thomas More Hospital in Cañon City, recently traveled to Haiti on a medical mission, as did several other Colorado doctors. These are her words about the experience:

“I went out to the field and did wound care, casting of fractures, one delivery, and a large amount of care of patients with GI problems causing dehydration. It was all exhausting as our team was seeing 400 patients a day, and sleeping on the ground at night. The most rewarding part was feeling that people were being helped and that we were gaining the trust of the people we treated.”

CRHC salutes Dr. King and her colleagues and their tireless efforts serving those in need.
