Dr. Danielle Perreault is a Canadian Red Cross delegate working at the field hospital in Ormoc, Philippines as a member of the medical team. In this short video, she explains how she is also doing outreach in communities impacted by Typhoon Haiyan last month to ensure their health care needs are being met.
Dr. Perreault is a family physician with a practice in Montreal and over 29 years of experience. Like other delegates, she has received extensive training as a member of the Emergency Response Unit (ERU) team prior to being deployed.
