PHC
62

March 23, 2016 -- Another amazing day (#62) with Project Homeless Connect.

I saw sixteen patients. Yes, we're supposed to call them clients, but their medical needs were so great. I saw meth users, a MRSA victim with an active infection, lots of lice, a paranoid schizophrenic, and a guy who had been awake two days straight, walking around the city, because he has no place to lie down.

PHC provides an amazing array of services, everything from banking to foot washing. Society at large does little for these folks. It falls to volunteers like me and the heroes who run PHC. Is that any way to run a country?
