Hospital beds

The Oneness-Heart-Tears and Smiles sent out by sea from the United States a 45-foot container with 36 hospital beds in addition to many boxes of medical and surgical supplies, medications, clothing and toys for Dominican people who experienced catastrophic consequences from the severe floods that took place on the island at the end of May 2004. We were informed by our consignee organization, Stepping Stones Ministries, that some hospitals in the Dominican Republic are lacking in hospital beds and patients are being positioned on the floor.
