As part of the Empire State Relief and Recovery Effort for Puerto Rico, CHCANYS is working with health systems across New York State to assemble care teams that can provide needed primary, urgent and emergency care. These teams will be an important component of a second wave of support to Puerto Rico once there is a measure of stability on the ground and healthcare needs are understood. Team assignments will be coordinated through officials from the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico working in coordination with U.S. Health and Human Services. If you would like to learn more about options for donating directly to Puerto Rico-based health centers and/or if there are interested volunteers within your health center who are MD, NP, RN, LPN or PA and would be available to deploy for at least 14 days, not including travel to/from Puerto Rico, please contact us at emteam@chcanys.org.
