Graduate Nursing Class Completes Team Training Program at Kolfe and Felege Melese Health Centers
The Graduate Class of Post-Basic Nursing, representing five specialty areas, has successfully concluded their five-week Team Training Program (TTP) at Kolfe Health Center and Felege Melese Health Center in Addis Ababa. During their field placement, students actively engaged in a range of impactful community-based initiatives. These included the renovation of public latrines, the delivery of health education on chronic and communicable diseases, waste disposal, and capacity-building efforts within the health centers, among others.
Additionally, in collaboration with the nursing staff of the college, students provided essential training on Neonatal Resuscitation for health center staff and First Aid to Health Extension workers, further strengthening local service delivery. Their work exemplified the college's ongoing commitment to developing compassionate, community-oriented professionals capable of mobilizing local resources for the public good.
The symposium celebrating their work featured student presentations on their experiences, challenges, and accomplishments, underscoring the power of applied learning. The gathering also acknowledged essential collaborators—local health offices and community members—for their invaluable assistance, expressing a common vision for meaningful, collaborative education.
This initiative highlights the importance of practical training in nursing education and its positive impact on community health outcomes.
