A new chapter in community healthcare has begun in Region Two as 60 individuals from areas including Bethany and Yarashrima, officially started their journey in a comprehensive Community Health Workers (CHW) training programme.
The initiative, introduced by the Regional Health Services, was launched on June 30 in the boardroom of the Suddie Public Hospital.
The six-month training course, which is being held entirely in the region, is being facilitated by Medex Leota Hubbard and her team of health professionals.
This decentralisation of training marks a shift toward local empowerment, removing the previous need for participants to travel to Georgetown for similar opportunities.
