Abstract
- The article reports on the rehabilitation services of Cuba in Haiti following the earthquake in the latter country on January 12, 2010. It notes that Cuban-le teams treat victims in cooperation with the health professionals from other countries. It points out that the country adapted its own health approach by folding its emergency medical response into its long-term cooperation with the devastated country. The Cuban rehabilitation services help alleviate the pain suffered by the Haitians. It adds that Cuba also established health posts to treat and rehabilitate amputates to arthritis patients.
