Follow j. on   and 

Israeli medical experts in the rehabilitation of amputees arrived in Haiti recently to help examine and evaluate injured victims of the earthquake.

The medical professionals from Alyn Hospital, an Israeli rehabilitation center in Jerusalem for physically disabled children and adolescents, arrived in Haiti last week under the auspices of IsraAid, a coordinating body of Israeli and Jewish relief organizations and other interested parties based in Israel.

The team will examine and evaluate the type and number of injuries and amputations, as well as assess the abilities of the medical staff in Haiti to carry out the rehabilitation of its people. — jta
