BY DOUGLAS VAHIA

A total of 163 nurses from around the provinces who are on probation attended the Antenatal Care Training at St Barnabas Cathedral Hall from Monday to Friday this week.

The training was supported by the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) through the World Health Organization (WHO).

There were eight facilitators and two doctors at the training from the Ministry of Health and Medical Services (MHMS) and the Honiara City Council (HCC).

Speaking to the Island Sun, Special Service Agreement officer, Jenny Gaiofa said the training is about quality care for pregnant women.

She said the nurses have already completed their probation cycle and are now waiting to be recruited into the public service through the Ministry of Health.

The Antenatal Care, often referred to as parental care, is a crucial aspect of ensuring healthy pregnancy for both mother and the baby.

The training serves as a massive opportunity for the nurses and they were extremely grateful to have participated in the training.
