Hôpital Albert Schweitzer Haiti
Saving lives, changing lives for more than 50 years
Most Haitians still labor from dawn to dusk for no more than food and shelter.
The hospital operates pediatrics, high-risk obstetrics, and neo-natal wards to reduce child mortality rates in our service area.
In a country burdened with unsanitary living conditions, food and waterborne diseases, and limited environmental resources, HAS serves as an outpost of hope.
The hospital’s full-time complement of physicians and nurses are Haitian, supported by visiting specialists from around the world.
HAS’s integrated health system extends our reach to remote mountain communities days away from the hospital.
Your contribution makes a significant difference—often the difference between life and death for many Haitian people.
Hôpital Albert Schweitzer Haiti (HAS) serves as a referral hospital for more than 345,000 impoverished people in the Artibonite Valley of central Haiti. In addition, HAS provides community-based primary medical care and development programs. An integrated rural health system, HAS is a model for health care facilities in developing countries around the world.
