On the road again

Well it was quite a busy week on the road again. We are currently in the process of a data review for the bCPAP project. Training for the CPAP nurses starts soon, so there is lots to be done. This week we went to Kasungu, Mzuzu, and Mwanza for data collection. This involved a lot of tracking medical charts down, sorting through the charts, documenting information from the registers, and filling out new data forms.  Things went fairly smoothly and were particularly efficient with a team of 6 instead of 3. Last night we packed up all the medical gear going to the various hospitals in their respective suitcases which took a surprisingly short amount of time with all five interns, MK, Jocelyn, and Pelham all working together with some quality music in the background to motivate us. It was also great to see my fellow interns from St. Gabes this week. Now we get to show them what life is like in the big city this weekend!
