Responding to Hurricane Ian

This podcast is sponsored by ZOLL. In this episode, Dov and Raphael are once again joined by Gavy Friedson, United Hatzalah’s Director of International Emergency Management. Friedson acted as the mission commander for the organization’s relief efforts both in Puerto after Hurricane Fiona and in Florida after Hurricane Ian.  The trio discusses the team’s efforts in Florida and how the Psychotrauma and Crisis Response Unit once again worked to assist the residents who were adversely affected by the hurricane. Thanks to the many surprises along the way that challenged the group's efforts, teamwork and partnerships were essential in allowing the team to provide psychological treatment and relief for hundreds of residents who lost everything.
