The family of a teen who died in Puerto Rico is blaming the lack of proper medical equipment and facilities they say could have kept her alive.
Her family took her to Vieques' local clinic, the Center for Diagnostics and Treatment, as quickly as they could, José Ventura, a cousin, told NBC News.
Once there, the clinic was not equipped to help Jaideliz —Ventura said the facility did not have a functioning respirator to give her the oxygen she needed when her levels plummeted. Instead, the facility only had a smaller, manual pump.“If we had more resources, she would be with us right now,” Ventura told NBC News. “They have forgotten about us.”the community health care center housed
the small island's clinic for veterans as well as the only labor and delivery room in Vieques, which is located about seven miles off Puerto Rico's eastern coast. Since then, residents of Vieques have been traveling by ferry or airplane to seek the proper medical help.
