Train Health Care Workers

We aim to equip local healthcare workers in Sierra Leone through medical missions at The Association of Sierra Leonean Health Professionals in The US.

With our training programs, we help build the capacity and capability of health and health-related professionals and institutions in the local area.

We understand that health services cannot function without the sufficient numbers of skilled, motivated, and supported health workers. As of present time, however, there is an estimate that Africa needs 1 million more health workers in order to meet the Millennium Development Goals for health.

Knowing this, TASHPUS aims to train more than 1000 community health workers who bring health closer to local communities in Sierra Leone’s. As much as possible, we will concentrate on the most marginalized and rural communities of the country.

The Association of Sierra Leonean Health Professionals in The US Training Program:

• Train doctors, nurses, community midwives, clinical officers, laboratory technicians and pharmacists
• Hands-on training shall take place in communities, health centers, and hospitals in Sierra Leone
• Host training courses to emphasize continuing education for all rural health workers
