Day 288 – Thursday 11th November 2010

Armorel ran her cardiovascular teaching session with the nurses this morning. Initial feedback was good, but they found the topic quite hard so have asked for the session to be repeated on Tuesday. We are excited by the willingness to learn.

The rest of the day was spent doing wound dressings and giving advice on baby care and feeding. She also started part of her handover, training one of the nurses how to discharge patients.

The students and I struggled with the heat today, with energy levels severely lacking. We pushed on through and managed to get some good work done.

It was then time for sports and games, which was also a struggle. The students didn’t really get involved but that could have been from the morning pep talk they received, “if you play football, get injured and fail your exams it is your fault!”

This evening we had Christopher and his wife, Grace, over for dinner, which was lovely. It was great to catch up as it has been a long time since we saw each other. Christopher was my first line manager in Tabora.

We are now packing! We are going on a small adventure for a long weekend.

Will fill you in on Monday!
