One Nurse At A Time

Urgent Appeal – Immanuel Joplin Calling for Doctors and Nurses

Immanuel Lutheran C in Joplin is doing incredible work serving their members,
neighbors and the entire city.  They are providing food, water, clothing and medical
care.  The medical clinic being run out of their school building is dependent on volunteer
doctors and nurses.  Pastor Gregory Mech and the leadership at Immanuel have
asked us to put out this appeal asking doctors and nurses LICENSED IN MISSOURI to
consider coming to Joplin and serving in the clinic.  Any doctors and nurses LICENSED
IN MISSOURI and able to donate even a day or two of their time would play a crucial
role in keeping the medical clinic open and available to the community.  The clinic is
administering tetanus shots, doing wound care and addressing respiratory distress
caused by the massive amounts of airborne debris from the rubble, among other
things.  If you are a medical professional and can donate some of your time to help
Immanuel either contact the church for information or register with Lutheran Church
Charities who is coordinating volunteers for Joplin.  Note specifically that you are
a doctor or nurse so that we can assign you to work in the clinic.  Thank you for
considering this request to share the mercy and compassion of Christ with the people of
Joplin.
