The National Teaching Hospital in Mirebalais, Haiti, is being built under the direction of Partners in Health, a not-for-profit, Boston-based organization that specializes in providing health services and facilities to those in need worldwide.
"Boston's Shawmut Construction and Partners in Health work very closely with each other," said Peter McKeon, Regional Sales Manager for Laticrete. "For the National Teaching Hospital, a construction team consisting of workers from both of those organizations was put together under the direction of PIH project director, Charlie Henriques. That group then spoke to Troy Bickford of Contract Flooring in Raynham, MA, who almost immediately offered the services of his firm to prepare the hospital's flooring to be tiled. Being a top Laticrete MVP installer, Bickford then approached us. We responded immediately, offering a great deal of product."
