I am a healthcare worker for a hospital and I give a big shout out to my fellow health care workers sacrificing their time to service others. what an awesome thing to see this is the epitome of what we stand for.
Tammy Goulet I myself was a week into the storm with my family we had to really struggle man stealing from stores and sleeping on the roofs to survive I'm so happy to be alive and that suicide thing is true my great uncle's wife killed her whole family then herself because they were stuck the government really fucked up!!! my mod disabled when we came home we got nothing but food stamps no home or replacement of anything we lost we literally had to live in a church..where was FEMA then? smh
But yet the news told people the hospital was evacuated. The more I see the more I realize the government was trying to cover this up. They made us(US) believe they were helping. What I see they sat back and watched. The governor refused federal help when she should have taken all the help she could get. I am sorry for all here. So sad.
She refused due to a hidden agenda the federal government had, that would hurt more of the natives then it would have helped. I encourage u to look deep into this and u will see what I'm talking about. The corruption and conspiracies are deeper than u can imagine....the rabbit hole is deep and dark SMH!
I visited this hospital 3/12/19. Our tour guide said there is no power going into this building yet there is 2 rooms there that are fully lit. I would love to know how that is possible. We also visited the charity cemetery where 1,000s of unclaimed bodies were buried. So sad this happened to this beautiful city. I love New Orleans.
Your tour guide is wrong. One reason charity still stands is because power feeds for surrounding hospitals and buildings through charity. They have major power distribution equipment inside the building. My dad's company is contracted to work on it when it has issues.
It's amazing to think of the difference between Charity Hospital, who worked hard to save ALL their patients, starting with ICU patients first (and with a minimal loss of life), and Memorial Hospital- who euthanized some of their ICU patients and left those that were deathly ill to struggle until the very end with little care in a poorly planned "triage" system. It shows that even at the worst, a positive, determined management at a hospital makes all the difference.
The men and women working at this hospital during this time will forever be heros. THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID. Thank you for what you went through for others.
lawd I'm 18 I was 6 maybe 7 when Katrina happened I remember walking thru that water for days because we were stuck I miss my city still not the same this shit really changed us I can speak for that no child should see people die around them.
After surviving the August 2016 flood in Louisiana i can now understand what Katrina victims went thru to some degree. I'm not rich by no means but I'm not poor but after my house took on 11 inches of water and literally we ripped out half my house and tossed all our stuff to the curb you feel totally helpless. No flood insurance. We literally just had a roof with a concrete flood to call home. For the first time in my adult life I was depending on FEMA to help me!!!! believe me you never know when something like this could happening to you. Today I'm still without a kitchen. I use a one burner stove and barbecue pit to cook or i have to buy our food already prepared. I have no cabinets in my kitchen or baths. We have make shift counter/sinks in the bath rooms. We've have managed to finish all the house expect for these items with the funds from FEMA however both my husband and I done all the work except for finishing the sheetrock. We both developed tennis elbow (mine is so bad i have to wear a hand brace and i'm in physical therapy for it) just from painting the entire house from ceiling to floor. We did what we had to do to #1 survive, #2 avoid having to purchase flood insurance at 5k a year. If you never lived thru a natural disaster I promise you have no idea. Everyday I see someone doze a home down or spend there entire life savings to get back in there home. The only reason we didn't have the death total like Katrina brought we "the public" literally launched 1000's of boats to save people. We didn't wait on the government. What's so disgusting our National Governement still has no emergency plan for diasters of this size.
bayou boggie I was in Metairie and my house was flooded in katrina and in baton rouge last year during the flood and my home flooded again we lived in a gated community on oneal lane and only the first 4 houses flooded us included. We are thinking of leaving Louisiana once we save up to buy another home. We didn't get much from fema.
Charity could have been repaired. Instead, Charity will become a condo town. Money talks and s---walks. Heaven help the poor in New Orleans no one else is.
CNN really dropped the ball on this reporting. Charity was cleaned and ready to go according to General Honoree in the documentary Big Charity. However it was never opened because that would interfere with receiving funding for the new hospital that they wanted to build. Once again CNN just does the surface, tow the line, reporting for the corporate interests. Gupta should be ashamed.
The hospital they "wanted" to build?How about the hospital they NEEDED to build.. Charity was still americas oldest hospital (and I'm talking building,not existence )it was behind the times,the emergency department only had one trauma room that was way too small,and it still had nightingale wards! It needed replaced long before Katrina happend..it just was the last push
That's Complete bullshit. There was a competing plan that would have transformed Charity into a state of the art, 21st century hospital...for HALF the 1.2 BILLION price tag of the new university medical center. Charity was shuttered for political reasons.
agreed, at least that bitch Kathleen Blanco is dead, the one who locked out the workers and told them that they were closing the hospital for good. Shame on LSU for letting it rot so they could build a new hospital. Should have been saved.
I was living in Virginia when hurricane Katrina happened it was so sad then and it's still sad now praying 🙏 for all those lives lost and there families God bless you all much love from Washington state
just came back from visiting new orleans. i cant believe they shut the hospital down. from what i was told by a tour guide. was that the hospital was stocked with new equipment after katrina and when the hospital was going to reopen the city shut it down.. the equipment is also still there and was never relocated to other hospitals.. the guide also told us that the city sold it to some buyer for over 300 million recently
Those who have half a brain know and understand why these people were left and help was conveniently nowhere to be found. This is always the story when it comes to a certain group of people, this country has a track record of this.
It wasn't. LSU and the government hid the damage and ordered it to decay so they could build a new hospital. Glad that bitch governor who stopped the funding (Kathleen Blanco) is dead.
Is it just me but in like the thumbnail and arial view, the hospital looks a little tilted, like it’s sinking. It could just be my eyes and I hope I’m wrong but
How pathetic of them not to airlift the patients of Charity. "God doesn't like ugly and He's not too crazy about pretty either. " That's a quote from my mother who knows God very well. She's resting peacefully in His arms now because of her caring heart and care for others!
No my great grandma was in there for broke her hip and my mom asked a nurse for thesis paper to clean up number 2 and nurse gave my pillow case to clean her I was 12 year old and now I ride my bike by that and you can still smiling death from it
I'm a 66 yr old white woman from the "north" who even today can't believe what happened to Charity Hospital. This was an absolute sin when they abandoned both the staff and patients after Katerina. I watched several episodes of Trauma .... filmed at Charity multiple times. Enough to remember both some staff and patients by name and injury. The city leaders are the ones who abandoned Charity. The rich didn't want to rebuild because that would stop their plan to pay for the new hospital at the university. The idea was we can get rid of this monument to our poor, especially if they had to go there for treatment. They would much rather go to a brand new hospital in the suburbs. I don't think Bush had anything to do with this. This is more state/local politics in motion. Glad the partners in crime are gone on the upper political levels but this is what happens when we don't know what our politicians are behind or their record of past decisions and just listen to their WORDS or vote for the name, race, party, etc, instead of where their heart and words are. Remember voting with knowledge is the most important thing you can do for your community and your children's future. FYI I didn't stick up for Bush because I voted for him, I didn't, but if you think Gore would have done a better job-I'd say, don't think so, quite possibly worse. That's my opinion but Gore had no real political ties that would have been helpful, that's where sometimes it's the lesser of the negative options available. SO SORRY TO SEE THIS MONUMENT OF HISTORY GONE. It doesn't matter what they do with the building it won't do justice to Charity. The only thing that could have done that is if they had a ribbon cutting for the new most modern hospital in our community. THE PRIDE OF NEW ORLEANS---OUR NEW CHARITY state of the art medical center.
Søren Kaas Selvom vi betaler meget i skat, så er vi fandme heldige! Vi har fri uddannelse, vi får penge for at gå i skole, vi har fri adgang til sygehuse og hvis vi mister vores job og ikke er i fagforening, så får vi penge... Så vi skal absolut ikke brokke os!
Nothing is free, your free health care is paid for by those who actually go to work! This is one of the largest reasons for economic collapse in many European countries. Go to work and take care of yourself! You guys are next, enjoy it while you can.
I was born at Charity Hospital in 92. My aunt worked as a Nurse at Charity too. Sad how they never reopened or attempted to reopen the Hospital smdh.
I am a healthcare worker for a hospital and I give a big shout out to my fellow health care workers sacrificing their time to service others. what an awesome thing to see this is the epitome of what we stand for.
never knew health care workers were all working for free
My grandmother told me that they had some of the best doctors in the world
There , never knew that and I was born and raised there since 1973
I pass this building on a daily basis and I want to explore it so badly
Chromedude - 223
Im down
TRUE
Sounds like it might be unsafe to do so. Heard it's got a lot of mold, etc
@@EphemeralProductions Urban exploration is really dangerous if you don't know what you are doing, but if you are smart and prepared, it's safe.
This makes me so sad to see this, I was born at Charity Hospital.
a week after the hurricane to wait for help? unreal. major fail from our government
Tammy Goulet I myself was a week into the storm with my family we had to really struggle man stealing from stores and sleeping on the roofs to survive I'm so happy to be alive and that suicide thing is true my great uncle's wife killed her whole family then herself because they were stuck the government really fucked up!!! my mod disabled when we came home we got nothing but food stamps no home or replacement of anything we lost we literally had to live in a church..where was FEMA then? smh
I am so sorry
Tammy Goulet you have to always rely on yourself, no one cares about anyone in an emergency.
What don't kill you makes you stronger
@@GeminiTheDoll More like where was your Democrat mayor (In Dallas at the time) or your Democrat governor?
But yet the news told people the hospital was evacuated. The more I see the more I realize the government was trying to cover this up. They made us(US) believe they were helping.

Love the old art deco hospital
If it’s a miracle that it survived then it’s clearly a sign that we should renovate it!
God bless the nurses and doctors of Charity. I grew up in New Orleans and they were the only health care options poor people had. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I was born there back in 1957, great place and sad to see it go.
lawd I'm 18 I was 6 maybe 7 when Katrina happened I remember walking thru that water for days because we were stuck I miss my city still not the same this shit really changed us I can speak for that no child should see people die around them.
Im so sorry for ur loss :(
Charity is still sitting there ...The city can't figure out what to do with the Hard Rock debacle --let alone Charity ...

I was born somewhere in this building, August 22, 1955...
My dad worked at charity in the 90's after med school.
My grandmother worked at that psych ward for over 20 years. I always thought my grandma was kind of a badass. Throw out the old, in with the new.

It was 9/27/82 baby due, charity hospital aka the city zoo -Lil Weezyana
Show pity due to no one, nobody at all
The city should allow all the homeless on the street to use this area, & keep it clean.
Dude charity is haunted af

I was living in Virginia when hurricane Katrina happened it was so sad then and it's still sad now praying 🙏 for all those lives lost and there families God bless you all much love from Washington state
those r some amazing doctors and nurses.
60 beds for medically Ill? We need so many more
Thank God for the old Chairty hospital it saved my life in 11/09/1985
just came back from visiting new orleans. i cant believe they shut the hospital down. from what i was told by a tour guide. was that the hospital was stocked with new equipment after katrina and when the hospital was going to reopen the city shut it down.. the equipment is also still there and was never relocated to other hospitals.. the guide also told us that the city sold it to some buyer for over 300 million recently

being bipolar i was committed to psychiatric unit more times than i care to remember thank God i wasn't here when katrina hit

This is heartbreaking.
So sad
In Tulane hospital and looking clear at it
Seems like such a waste to let that fall off into disrepair. I mean, the damage doesn't look that bad. What's the big issue?
The building was very old,almost ancient( it still had nightingale wards!)..Katrina was just the last nail in the coffin,so to speak
Hardly ancient. The building itself is perfectly structurally sound, and incredibly well built.
It wasn't. LSU and the government hid the damage and ordered it to decay so they could build a new hospital. Glad that bitch governor who stopped the funding (Kathleen Blanco) is dead.
Is it just me but in like the thumbnail and arial view, the hospital looks a little tilted, like it’s sinking. It could just be my eyes and I hope I’m wrong but
Sad the Name is gone!!! My Mom was born there on Feb.11 1941!
My birth place 💯💯💯💯🙏🏾
That was so painful and it broke my heart, poor people lose again 📖⛪🐑
Kudo's to staff and all. I will never forget nor stop fighting. They took BR as well, but you ALL are MY HEROS
MIRACLES DID HAPPEN BUT LSU SAW $$$$AS WELL AS GOVERNOR
It’s a miracle it’s still intact
New Orleans LA History
Renovate the old charity on Tulane in new Orleans it could be another medical expansion make new Orleans one of the best medical districts.

Haven't they had a Power Generator
It went out. Even the back up generators.
They should still fix charity still because the hospital would be done by now (2016
It was ready for operation 3 weeks after the storm, the Governor ordered it permanently closed after being OSHA approved for operation.
