Anaesthetists in Southampton have formed a partnership with the Nick Simons Institute, a Nepal-based organisation that works with the Nepal Government and other institutions to support rural health workers.
Isolated non-doctor anaesthetists provide the majority of anaesthesia provision at district and zonal level across the country, outside of Kathmandu and the private sector. Southampton anaesthetists support the non-doctor anaesthetist program and have developed educational packages including refresher courses, video library and a distance learning program. They deliver targeted on-site training and support in partnership with Institute and the Nepal Government National Health Training Centre.
