Healthcare workers are faced with many challenges that could affect their mental well-being and hinder quality services in their course of duty. To address these challenges, Gede Foundation is embarking on Mental Health Training to healthcare workers to support their ability to carry out their roles and responsibilities for healthcare delivery.
The training is aimed at engaging them with tools that are tested and could support their mental health.
The 5 modules of self-reliance through mental health is targeting the frontline workers in health facilities, and more importantly, those in isolation centres for highly infectious diseases such as COVID-19, Lassa Fever, MPox etc.
This phase of the training is targeting over 2500 Nurses and Doctors in health facilities in Akwa Ibom,Benue, Plateau and Nasarawa states. The Project is funded by Project HOPE.
