In January 2017, Rosa (The CRC Residential Counselor) started her classes to pursue a continuing education certificate from the Holy Rosary Sisters Counseling and Peace Centre. Her studies included career counseling, psycho-social counseling, and pastoral counseling. The year-long program ended in a three-week practical internship Rosa conducted at Mercy Hospital. "I want to thank the CRC, HCW, Beth Ratchford and the Morells for all their support in moving me to another level in the academic field. Of course I am now loaded with knowledge relating to my job and position as a counselor." Rosa's parents, a team of CRC staff, and other guests were all present at the Holy Rosary Compound for the ceremony. Certificates were presented by the Director of the Centre, Sister Okechi, and the ceremony was followed by photos and refreshments. On January 31st, Dr. Carol McIntosh conducted a staff training with Sister Augusta, the maternity department, and some of the ward nurses at Mercy Hospital, using Zoom. The focus of the training was on post-partum hemorrhage and prolonged labor. Dr. Carol also explained when to refer patients to Bo government, in situations that Mercy is not equipped to handle. This gave Mercy its first taste of telemedicine, allowing Dr. Carol to speak over the computer with the members of Mercy’s nursing department. The Mercy staff really liked the visuals Dr. Carol was able to share with them using the Zoom teleconferencing capabilities.  |
