The University of the Dr. Aristide Foundation is making its contribution, rushing to aid victims and survivors of the August 14, 2021 earthquake in the departments of Nippes, South and Grande Anse

The University of the Dr. Aristide Foundation (UNIFA) through the Faculties of Medicine, Nursing Sciences and its School of Physiotherapy is not indifferent to the victims of the earthquake of August 14, 2021 which devastated the departments of Nippes, the South and the Grande Anse.

With a solid medical team made up of highly qualified doctors, health executives, graduates in Medicine, Nursing Sciences and Physiotherapy, UNIFA is participating in the emergency health response in the departments affected by the August 14, 2021 earthquake. The use of telemedicine is at the heart of this activity and is proving to be very effective in the time of this outpouring of solidarity with the victims of the departments of Nippes, South and Grande Anse.

With sufficient equipment and sanitary materials, combined with appropriate technology, the UNIFA medical team is present at the bedside of the victims of the devastating earthquake in the Great South. UNIFA graduates who were already there in the south have joined the medical team and all are hard at work bringing comfort to the victims of the Deep South.
