I am very happy to participate in this blog and meet educators frommy countries and other countries across the world. Globalization certainly hasan effect on education, both positive and negative

    I am part of our hospital's Ebola strike force. We trained on PPE and procedures. We have designated rooms and equipment. I feel we need to have regular drills. But maybe this new vaccine will eliminate the need for this!

    For continued practice and maintenance of competent skills necessary to care for the patient with Ebola virus disease or in need of bio-containment, onging drills are the way to go. For initial preparation, a minimum of 5 drills are required. Quarterly drills are scheduled for team members. Drills are life-like and conducted in a simulated setting using case scenarios.
