A number of students have started their practical internship with us again. Franzi (right in the photo) and Loes (left) are our new interns from Groningen, with a strong interest in tropical medicine. For both it is the penultimate internship, but Franzi will stay with us for a month longer!
We also have new trainees from the surgical and paediatric training courses in Sierra Leone. STP Isata started her internship with us last month, under the supervision of our surgical officer Mohamed Bangura, she will become proficient in repairing inguinal hernias and other operations. PTP's Ibrahim and Peter will join us for five months. With us they will get their first introduction to clinical work with children, after they have received extensive theoretical training from 'German Doctors'.
From the middle of this month, a German pediatrician will join our team for six weeks to give them full attention and guidance.
