SUMMARY: This project will support the
Gorgas Memorial Institute (GMI) to: (a)
Develop a regional training center in
´
Panama and (b) train community health
workers and clinicians (physicians,
nurses, and auxiliary medical workers)
and select public-health professionals
from Central and South America, (c)
facilitate partnerships (‘‘twinning’’)
between U.S. universities and their
Latin American counterparts to develop
human resources for health in Latin
America, and (d) harness the energies of
U.S. and other non-governmental
organizations by partnering with them
to advance community health training
and program efforts in Latin America.
These efforts will contribute to
improved and expanded provision of
prevention and primary health care, and
they will help engage significantly more
areas of these countries to prepare for
and respond to public health
emergencies such as pandemic
influenza.
The training efforts of this project will
place greater emphasis on the training of
nurses and community health workers,
rather than physicians, to reap the
greatest improvement in expanded
coverage and improved access to
community, preventive and primary
health care in underserved parts of Latin
America (i.e., underserved rural and
poor urban communities). In addition,
as a result, the healthcare work force
will be better prepared to respond to
public health emergencies such as
pandemic influenza. Key to the
selection of recipients for this training
will be their availability and willingness
to commit to providing their health and
medical care skills in underserved areas
within the region. In addition to all
appropriate medical care and health
education or communication subjects,
training supported by this project will
emphasize infectious diseases,
epidemiology, disease surveillance and
outbreak response, among other subjects
so graduates of training programs will
be prepared to play contributing roles to
any pandemic preparation and
response.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: While a
number of Latin American countries
have made significant strides in
improving the quality of health care for
their citizens, and extending that care
into underserved areas, a number of
countries and regions still suffer from a
shortage of appropriately trained healthcare workers and clinicians. Though all
levels of medical care (primary,
secondary and tertiary) warrant further
investment and effort to meet Latin
Americans’ present and growing need
for medical care, this need is perhaps
