SEVERAL persons have benefited greatly from an Information Technology (IT) Training Workshop for Health Workers held at the Cheddi Jagan Research Centre (Red House), Kingston, Georgetown.
Speaking about the initiative, one of the participants, Ms. Chandra Mangal noted that the programme was very interesting and educative, and that all the participants benefited greatly.She added that while the participants have pledged to put all they have learnt into practice, they were extremely grateful to the Regional Health Service (RHS) for the initiative and the Ministry of Health for introducing the programme into their curriculum.
She expressed the hope that many such programmes will be staged especially for health workers since it serves as a forum to further educate them on important health issues.
Some 30 persons graduated recently from the programme which concluded late last year.
