A large percentage of the patients treated by HHFoH volunteers suffer from illnesses caused by poor hygiene. In addition, Haiti is still struggling with a cholera epidemic more than eight years after the disease’s first appearance in the country. We also understand there is a need for hygiene education. So, starting with our trip this summer, we will teach basic hygienic behaviors to all the female patients who come to the clinic. The hour-long class will include basic feminine hygiene, the necessity of systematic hand-washing with soap after using the toilet and before handling food or eating. Hygiene is one way to fight disease, especially in a cholera-induced environment.
