Simulation-based training and peer-to-peer learning

Abstract

The Mama na Mtoto initiative aims to improve maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) in Misungwi and Kwimba Districts (Tanzania) through a variety of activities, including development of clinical capacity at health facilities. Using simulation, teams can practice managing emergency cases in a safe and controlled environment with supportive coaching. Simulation events were used to refresh MNCH clinical care skills through 5-day workshops for 200 health workers.
