Hundreds of thousands of Mississippians lost their homes, churches, schools, employment their very culture.

Download or read book Voices of Angels written by Gail Tumulty and published by Pelican Publishing. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Hurricane Katrina barreled towards New Orleans, Louisiana, hospitals across the city prepared for the coming storm. Staff members streamed in and began stockpiling food, water, medical supplies, and fuel. But what no one foresaw was that their emergency generators would flood and fail, leaving hospitals stranded in the rising water with no air conditioning or much of their equipment and unable to evacuate patients and staff by land. Throughout the devastating winds, rising waters, and August heat, nurses stuck by their patients. They improvised new emergency procedures and methods of record-keeping and patient transport, all without power or reliable information. These angels saved lives while their world fell apart around them. The individual voices of nurses come from six New Orleans-area hospitals--Veterans Affairs, Pendleton Memorial, Medical Center of Louisiana in New Orleans, Charity, Tulane Medical Center, and Ochsner--as well as Lambeth House retirement community and the Emergency Operations Center in Baton Rouge. They speak to the vital importance and ingenuity of nurses under pressure. This work examines the disaster plans used by each facility, examines what the most successful procedures were, and provides recommendations for preparing nurses for disaster response. Voices of Angelsis a case study and planning guide essential for facilities facing hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, and a host of other issues that affect medical centers nationwide.
Download or read book Community Lost written by Ronald J. Angel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-19 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neither government programs nor massive charitable efforts responded adequately to the human crisis that was Hurricane Katrina. In this study, the authors use extensive interviews with Katrina evacuees and reports from service providers to identify what helped or hindered the reestablishment of the lives of hurricane survivors who relocated to Austin, Texas. Drawing on social capital and social network theory, the authors assess the complementary, and often conflicting, roles of FEMA, other governmental agencies and a range of non-governmental organizations in addressing survivors' short- and longer-term needs. While these organizations came together to assist with immediate emergency needs, even collectively they could not deal with survivors' long-term needs for employment, affordable housing and personal records necessary to rebuild lives. Community Lost provides empirical evidence that civil society organizations cannot substitute for an efficient and benevolent state, which is necessary for society to function.
Download or read book Two Bobbies written by Kirby Larson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-06-27 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This modern classic from Newbery award winning author Kirby Larson and Mary Nethery is a remarkable true story of the devotion, friendship, and survival of two pets left behind in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. A testament to the spirit that defined post-Katrina rescue missions, this beautiful picture book has been a favorite of young readers for fifteen years. During Hurricane Katrina, evacuating New Orleans residents were forced to leave their pets behind. Bobbi the dog was initially chained to keep her safe, but after her owners failed to return, she had to break free. For months, Bobbi wandered the city's ravaged streets--dragging her chain behind her--followed by her feline companion, Bob Cat. After months of hunger and struggle, the Two Bobbies were finally rescued by a construction worker helping to rebuild the city. When he brought them to a shelter, volunteers made an amazing discovery about the devoted friends--Bob Cat was actually blind! He had survived the aftermath of the storm by following the sound Bobbi's chain made as she dragged it along the ground. At the shelter, the two bob-tailed friends refused to be parted, even for a moment. Could rescue workers find the Bobbies' owners? Or could they find a new home that would take them together?

Book excerpt: Hurricane Katrina was one of the most devastating storms to hit the US. Most of the attention is focused on the destruction in New Orleans, but the Mississippi Gulf Coast experienced untold damage as well.

Blown Together is a collection of over twenty-five true accounts of the impact of this storm on families and communities as well as the beautiful unity and cooperation it brought from volunteers near and far. "The cover of Blown Together: The Trials and Miracles of Katrina says it all-many came together, lending a hand to be a blessing to those in need. Fr. Sebastian has eloquently woven the tragic events of Katrina with the beauty of neighbors and strangers coming together. It helps us realize that we can find good even in our darkest hour." -Robin Roberts, co-anchor, Good Morning America, proud Mississippian
