MSF recruits 01 Administrative Assistant for BASIC PTC training

MSF recruits 01 Administrative Assistant for BASIC PTC training

 

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organization created in 1971 that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, healthcare exclusion and natural disasters. MSF offers assistance to people based only on need and irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation.

The purpose of the training department is to support departments and missions in the reflection and construction of tomorrow’s training offer.

To this end, the training department team evolved in 2018 with the creation of 3 divisions:

  • A pedagogical unit
  • A roll-out unit
  • A programming & creation unit

 

As part of a temporary creation of position, we are looking for an:

Administrative Assistant for BASIC PTC training M/F

The administrative assistant will be based at the heart of the roll-out unit.

 

Context:

Training is a part of interventions to improve quality of care in the field.  MSF projects share the specificity to manage critically ill patients (trauma and medical) in a low resource setting. In order to respond to those needs, BASIC LR and PTC courses  are deployed in the field to ensure our teams have the basic competencies to early recognize, assess and manage critically ill patients using a systematic approach (ABCDE).

  • BASIC LR for Doctors course – Basic Assessment & Support of Seriously Ill Patients in Low Resource settings – Partnership with the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
  • BASIC LR for Nurses course – Basic Assessment & Support of Seriously Ill Patients in Low Resource settings– Partnership with the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
  • PTC course – Primary Trauma Care / MCP course (Mass Casualty Plan. Disaster Medicine/Management training for management of influx of wounded). – Partnership with PTC foundation –

These courses are intersectional, endorsed by Critical care working group and supported by Dirmed from all OCs.

These courses are using active pedagogical tools in accordance with adult learning principles (e.g. interactives lectures, case discussions, skills stations and low technology simulation exercises).

BASIC LR courses for doctors and nurses (2 specific trainings) are deployed in the field since 2013 for doctors and 2016 for the nurses. Since 2016, 900 nurses and 445 doctors received the course.

PTC (nurses + doctors) is spread in the field since 2018. Since, 200 nurses/ doctors received the course
