Funded Activity Summary

This project aims to identify simple, cheap and effective training methods that can be delivered to doctors and health care workers practicing in remote areas or in situations of professional isolation. It particularly targets poisoning as this is a common cause of death in rural Asia and consumes a large amount of health resources. The potential benefits will be a reduction in deaths and health care costs and an identification of training methods that can be used for other health problems.
