I am almost positive I heard on the radio Friday that evacuees from hospitals were brought to Raleigh.

From WRAL:

Wake County Welcomes Rita Evacuees As Katrina Evacuees Leave

The first plane from Beaumont, Texas, arrived in Raleigh with 33 people at about 4:45 a.m. Thirteen of them were taken to hospitals while the other 20 were taken to recuperate at the shelter before they were moved into hotels or other lodging. They'll return home after the storm blows through, officials said.

A second plane arrived later Friday with 61 people, and at least 35 of them were carried off the plane on stretchers, Brown said. About a third of them went to a triage area at the airport and then to area hospitals. The rest went to the shelter.

Raleigh did receive St. Elizabeth's patients and they were sent to a few of their hospitals. I've tried Duke, Hollyhill (they are citing HIPPA laws and refusing to tell anyone if a patient has been admitted), Wake, Rex and Duke Raleigh.

I'm positive their are more hospitals in the Raleigh area that I've missed that may have received patients.

Thanks for the help....you guys are great!!
