Healthcare Personnel Training Program
To enhance the Healthcare Personnel Training
Program and better meet the needs of medical personnel
in our partner countries, this year we managed program
operations according to flexible principles. We offered
participants tailor-made services, providing practical
training involving content designed to meet countries’
specific medical demands. We also staggered the starting
dates of training periods based on partners’ suggestions.
These measures have helped to cultivate seed teachers
and provided support to our public health and medicine
projects currently under implementation.
In 2012, a total of 35 medical personnel from 14
partner countries took part in the program: 15 nurses, 10
doctors, three radiologists, two medical engineers, one
pharmacist and four health care services administrators.
Four participants were part of a training project to build
capacity among head nurses and midwives at clinics in
Burkina Faso. Another group of radiologists, technicians
and medical engineers took part in the program as part of
the Used Medical Equipment Donation and Training Project
in Burkina Faso.
