At Lacor Hospital, we believe that learning never stops—especially when lives are on the line. Every three months, our pediatricians, obstetricians, and midwives come together for refresher training on neonatal resuscitation and risk identification. It’s not just about saving babies; it’s about staying prepared, sharp, and ready for anything.
This time around, our pediatrician, Dr. Venice Omona, led the team in sharing their expertise with midwives and obstetricians. Midwives brought their hands-on experience, while obstetricians added their deep understanding of childbirth complexities. Together, they form a team that’s skilled and united in purpose.
The training goes beyond resuscitation, according to Dr. Onen as he stated, “It’s about spotting risks early—before a baby is even born—so we can act fast and save lives.”
Every session of this refresher training equips our healthcare heroes with the tools they need to handle emergencies with confidence.
The impacts of these trainings don’t stop at the hospital doors. Every midwife, obstetrician, and pediatrician who attends carries their knowledge back into their work, spreading skills and saving lives in their communities. It’s a ripple effect of learning that strengthens the entire healthcare system.
This approach is a reminder that continuous medical education isn’t just a box to check—it’s a lifeline. By investing in training, collaboration, and preparation, we are not just improving care; we are building a future where every mother and baby has a fighting chance.
Let’s celebrate and support initiatives like this because when healthcare professionals grow, communities thrive.
