Final Health Education Training Session

We concluded our training of trainers teaching sessions this past Friday with a presentation on Buruli ulcers. The last session went very well and I feel that the nurses are well prepared to train the remaining staff throughout the hospital. In the end the trainees participated in over 24 hours of training on 6 different subjects (Malnutrition, Family Planning, Tuberculosis, Malaria, AIDS and Buruli ulcers). Their enthusiasm for learning and creativity in the numerous activity sessions that complemented the teaching sessions was encouraging.

We conducted our first teaching session in the hospital yesterday. We held the teaching sessions in the community health clinic and ended up presenting two health topics (malaria and tuberculosis). Both sessions went extremely well. We projected the illustrations created by the artists on to a screen and the nurses gave commentary and reviewed the main teaching points for the patients. Approximately 50 women and children were in attendence. We are going to hold two more teaching sessions before my departure at the end of next week.





Here are some other examples of the illustrations the artists created for the health education program.
