Hôpital Albert Schweitzer (HAS)Facility

Based in Haiti’s Lower Artibonite Valley, the 200-bed Hôpital Albert Schweitzer Haiti is the only 24/7 full-service hospital serving a population roughly the size of Anaheim, California — more than 350,000 people. ôpital Albert Schweitzer Haiti opened its doors on June 26, 1956 in Deschapelles. Named in honor of Dr. Schweitzer, the hospital, with its modern facilities and services, became a model for effective, compassionate healthcare in the developing world. For over 65 years, HAS has been at the forefront of caring for many of Haiti’s most vulnerable and medically fragile citizens, including infants, children, and their mothers. We are committed to confronting the most pressing, complex, and evolving challenges facing Haiti today.
