Medical Care alternatives?

[Comforts of Home Nursing]

This project for Negril International Hospital has dropped long time ago. I volunteered for NIH, but it never got off ground. Clinics close in the evening here and it requires some planning for care at night in Negril. The most important thing is getting someone there ASAP, then make a plan! You won't know whats open (time of day) and whats running as far as ambulances until the time comes. Until we have 24 hour facility we do our best here in Negril! It is great to see people asking questions and planning ahead. I always advise to carry ONE credit card and cash along with insurance proof, but many do not cover out of the country events. Please check ahead of time and check travel insurance options for reimbursement. Nurse Beth

I was going to suggest calling Beth for any preliminary emergency treatments and illness and to assist in stabilizing the patient..... I believe she is able to set you up with the local physician too if it is something that can be taken care of locally....
