MedTreks Kenya 2020!
Our MedTreks Kenya program started off with a bang this year in January 2020!
The team arrived in Kenya the first week of January and hit the ground running. One of the highlights of the trip was that the MedTreks team helped to train hands-on skills for the 200 Community Health Volunteers who were participating in HopeCore's 5 Day Level 1 certification training. The MedTreks team arrived the week of the training and provided hands-on skills-stations to the Community Health Volunteers on topics such as Wound Care, First Aid, CPR, Choking and assessment of the sick child.
The HopeCore nurses received selective training on leadership, change management and were trained in skills with IUD insertion and Cervical Cancer screening.
We are excited about how much this program is growing! We are looking forward to continuing to build out the training and capacity building program through a dedicated skills lab at HopeCore over the next year.
Thank you again for your support in helping to build capacity in Kenya!
Warmly,
Ari & the MedTreks Team
