St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach is treating three victims of the devastating earthquake that hit Haiti.

The first patient is a 67-year old woman who has dual citizenship in Haiti and the United States. She is in good condition. The second patient is a 10-year old boy who came in as a trauma patient. He was treated for fractures to his face and extremities. He is in good condition at the Children’s Hospital at St. Mary’s Medical Center. The third patient is a 16-month-old Haitian-American girl who suffered a broken leg bone.

St. Mary’s CEO Davide Carbone said his hospital is prepared to do more.

“We know the demand for medical care is overwhelming,” said Carbone. “That’s why we have been in touch with the appropriate agencies to offer our services to any of the victims or relief workers who need help. We are certainly willing and prepared to do whatever we can to aid in this critical effort.”

In addition to accepting patients, St. Mary’s is also gathering together medical supplies that could potentially be sent to Haiti. The hospital is working with its parent company, Tenet Healthcare Corporation, and local agencies such as the Diocese of Palm Beach, the South Florida Hospital and Health Care Association and the Palm Beach Medical Society to coordinate the collection of supplies for distribution to a centralized station for pre-arranged transport.

St. Mary’s has teamed up with The Diocese of Palm Beach to collect non-perishable food and clothing for the people of Haiti. Employees are invited to bring the items to work and place them in a drop box for eventual delivery. In addition, the hospital is urging its employees to make monetary donations to a reputable disaster relief agency.
