Essential Emergency and Critical Care Champions Workshops
The POETIC team at MUHAS runs regular ‘Champions Workshops’ in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. This initiative aims to enhance care and outcomes for critically ill patients across all health facility settings through effective, low-cost, and low-complexity life-saving interventions.
At the workshop, specially invited healthcare professionals work on the EECC principles and practices, discussing implementation strategies, research agendas, and approaches to increase funding for EECC.
Principles & Practices
Experts & Champions
The output is a group of motivated EECC experts – EECC champions – with a shared vision of expanding EECC coverage and saving lives. The workshop offers an invaluable opportunity for capacity building, networking, and collaboration with Tanzanian and global specialists in the field.
The Tanzanian Ministry of Health has developed a National Strategic Plan calling for all critically ill patients to be provided with such care, and EECC is gaining support with global stakeholders such as UNICEF, the World Bank and specialist medical societies.
