A Day in the Life...

A typical day in Titanyen, Haiti for the medical teams from Seacoast Church:

5:15isham- Sunrise
5:30am wake up, get dressed
6:00am- coffee
6:30am- breakfast with the rest of the compound (usually scrambled or hard-boiled eggs, bananas, cereal)
7:00am- devotions with the rest of the compound
7:30am- load up and leave for clinics
8:00ish am- clinics start, patients triaged
Noon- break for a PB&J lunch
12:30pm- back to seeing patients
3:00pm- see last few patients, wrap things up
3:30pm- have to leave for compound- days end relatively early because some of the translators and the clinic coordinator have to travel up to 2 hours to get home, too dangerous to be traveling in the dark
4:00pm- get back to compound, unload coolers and other equipment, relax, reflect, regroup, shower (some pool time)
5:30pm- dinner with the rest of the compound
7:00pm- some sort of meeting- either group devotions or an orientation, daily review
7:30pm- pill-packing for the mobile clinic the next day
8:30pm- usually dark outside, time to prepare for bed, wind down, socialize with team and Samaritan's Purse workers
bed time variable!
