I have applied to at least three organization to go to Haiti and assist after the earthquake hit last week. I have Emergency Room experience (not to mention hospice, pediatrics and PTSD experience) and am a Firefighter/Rescue and EMS responder in a remote area. In short, I have many many skills, medical and otherwise that I can put to use. I have cross-cultural experience and generous amounts of cross-cultural experience.
It is frustrating but I hope in the next month that I am able to find a way to help even if it is for a short time.

I knew you would be thinking of going to Haiti...have you checked RNRN not sure if you have to be a union member or not but it is worth looking into. They are mobilizing teams to go now, over 3,000 RN's have responded thus far. Go to the CNA website to register with them.
