This promises to be a very special night and a concert not to be missed! All funds raised on the night will go directly to supporting a medical project in Ghana that empowers rural and remote nurses to save lives and improve health outcomes for the most vulnerable.
A potential partnership has formed between the UL Hospitals Group, UL and the charity Ghana Medical Help to develop an emergency medicine training program, involving a 4-day training conference in June 2017 that ‘trains the trainers’.
The underlying principle is that nurses will be able to recognize and treat life threatening emergencies across many causes, based on a model of ‘big sick’ / versus ‘little sick’.
