Samaritan's Purse Scales Up North Carolina Response, Opening Emergency Field Hospital and Launching Airlift Operations
On Tuesday, the organization used a helicopter to sling load food and water to twelve isolated families in Additional Medical Support to Provide Surge Capacity as Search and Rescue Efforts Continue
在持續的搜救努力中，提供額外的醫療支援以提供增加的容量
BOONE, N.C., Oct. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Samaritan's Purse has begun emergency airlift operations in western North Carolina to help people who have been cut off from access to basic necessities due to infrastructure damage caused by Hurricane Helene.
美國博恩，2024年10月2日/美通社/--撒瑪利亞援助機構已經開始在北卡羅來納州西部進行緊急空運行動，以幫助那些由颶風海倫造成的基礎設施損壞而無法獲得基本生活必需品的人們。
The international Christian relief organization has also deployed an Emergency Field Hospital to assist Cannon Memorial Hospital in Avery County, North Carolina—a community that has been particularly hard-hit. The 20-bed unit will help alleviate the strained local healthcare system by providing triage support, emergency medical care, oxygen, and an in-patient ward if the main hospital reaches capacity. Samaritan's Purse has also provided two multi-bed field hospital oxygen units to local hospitals to supply oxygen for patients who don't have power in their homes.
這家國際基督教救濟組織還部署了一個緊急現場醫院，以協助北卡羅來納州艾弗裏縣的坎農紀念醫院——這是一個受災最嚴重的社區。這個20張牀位的單位將通過提供初步支援、緊急醫療護理、氧氣，並在主醫院達到容量上限時提供住院病房，來緩解緊張的當地醫療系統。撒瑪利亞援助還向當地醫院提供了兩個多牀位的現場醫院氧氣裝置，爲那些家裏沒有電的患者提供氧氣。
On Tuesday, the organization used a helicopter to sling load food and water to twelve isolated families in Newland, North Carolina as well as delivered a generator and starlink to a care facility in Spruce Pine, North Carolina. The facility had been without power for nearly four days, and supplies were beginning to run out. Samaritan's Purse has plans for similar operations to reach churches and other care facilities that can distribute critical relief supplies to inaccessible communities.
週二，該組織使用直升機爲北卡羅來納州紐蘭鎮的十二個與世隔絕的家庭空運食品和水，並向斯普魯斯派恩鎮的一家護理設施運送了發電機和星鏈。該設施已經停電將近四天，物資開始告罄。撒瑪利亞援助計劃進行類似的行動，以到達教堂和其他可分發關鍵救援物資給無法進入的社區的護理設施。
"Our hearts break for all those who have been devastated by Hurricane Helene. People have lost their homes, roads are washed out, millions are without power, and some have even lost loved ones—so many of our neighbors are hurting," said Franklin Graham, president of Samaritan's Purse. "We're thankful that we can respond and help in Jesus' Name. Please pray for these families and for our teams that are working in some of the hardest hit areas across the Southeast."
撒瑪利亞援助的弗蘭克林·格雷厄姆說:"我們的心爲所有那些被颶風海倫摧毀的人們而痛苦。人們失去了家園，道路被沖毀，成千上萬的人沒有電，一些人甚至失去了親人——我們的許多鄰居都在痛苦之中。"。"我們很感激我們能以耶穌的名義回應並提供幫助。請爲這些家庭以及在東南部一些受災最嚴重地區工作的我們的團隊祈禱。"
In response to devastation caused by Hurricane Helene, Samaritan's Purse has also deployed Disaster Relief Units—tractor-trailers stocked with tools and equipment—to Asheville and Boone, North Carolina; Perry and Tampa, Florida; and Valdosta, Georgia.
作爲對颶風海倫引起的破壞的回應，撒瑪利亞援助還向北卡羅來納州的阿什維爾、博恩、佛羅里達州的佩裏和坦帕，以及喬治亞州的瓦爾多斯塔部署了災難救援單位—裝滿工具和設備的拖車。
