Sustainability of collaborative capacity in community health partnerships. Assessment of “soft” skills (e.g. These elements bring into focus the various conversion factors that are crucial to transform “capabilities”, i.e. The ability of LTs to take ownership of the training seemed influenced by a number of factors, crucially time and resources. 2010;8:12. WHO. For example, acknowledging the competing demands on staff time, the Board agreed the release of all maternity staff from their clinical duties to attend a one-day training course at the hospital. Part of 55-56. The Kintampo Project (KP) is a GHP established in 2007 between a college of health in Kintampo (CoHK), Ghana, and an NHS Foundation Trust in the UK (NHSFT) to create an entirely new workforce of mental health practitioners to work in rural and at the time underserved parts of Ghana (www.thekintampoproject.org). In particular, we thank Colin Coles and Mark Roberts for helpful discussions on the Kintampo Project and for their help with the write-up of the case study. ToT was usually delivered in the early to middle phases of the projects, with gradual transfer of training from the HIC to the LMIC partner towards the latter stages. Springer Nature remains neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations.

Globalization and Health Nkamleu G, Kamgnia B. To appreciate the extent of LT retention, as well as the impact and continuity of the training cascade, such short-term evaluation is unrealistic. LMIC organisations facing understaffing need to integrate ToT within their wider strategic plans. The partnership was also able to engage with an important body running health delivery institutions across the country. In addition to conducting PROMPT training, Zimbabwean staff made a number of practical improvements to their working environment which enabled a better monitoring of clinical outcomes. The partnership addressed this concern by incorporating training practice on live patients and by effective coordination with the hospital to ensure that courses were delivered and staff were released only when service provision could be guaranteed.

Assessing motivation and commitment was essential given that about half of the candidates were unpaid health workers. 2003;60:130S–60S. From our dataset, we selected five case studies for further analysis; for simplicity, each case is here described to illuminate one aspect of the framework.

We would like to thank all participants who generously gave their time to talk to us about their health partnerships. The datasets analysed during the current study consist predominantly of grant project reports containing personal information and held by THET in accordance with UK data protection legislation. Yet, good healthcare manage… Bottle. The workforce for health in a globalized context–global shortages and international migration. Using Sen’s Capability Approach (CA) as our analytical lens [11], we then conceptualised an evaluative framework that integrates the evidence derived from the content analysis, together with organisational knowledge (i.e. A rapid evidence review on the effectiveness of institutional health partnerships. Across all 15 GHP, a number of common themes emerged. At the supra-organisational level, facilitators of ToT courses and cascades include financial support, infrastructure (e.g. BJOG 2014;121:1710–19. Consequently, there is a dearth of empirical evidence on the topic. Crisp N, Chen L. Global supply of health professionals. Of the five constitutive elements, it may be more feasible to address Talent, Implementation and Nurture and Development as these are more within the reach of a small-scale partnership. It also means that emphasis is generally on the initial transfer of skills from MTs to LTs. It is served by Rhine-Ruhr S-Bahn line S 2 every 30 minutes. GHP are usually defined as long-term, sustainable and usually voluntary collaborations between institutions with similar objectives for the mutual exchange of skills, knowledge and experience [6].

Last but not least, we thank Andrew Jones for a very helpful and thorough reading of the final draft of this manuscript. Many LTs struggle to find the time to attend the ToT course and to cascade the training afterwards. La Vénus De 1000 Hommes 6. Baron N.

Over time, the newly trained community of mental health workers have became part of the teaching staff and many of the original ‘trainer’ RMNs have now been replaced by the most able teachers amongst the new workforce. Resources and Alignment may be much more demanding because they require ToT to be embedded at individual, organisational and supra-organisational level and projects may not have the scope to influence decision making at all these levels. Bona disponibilitat i preus fantàstics. Moreover, more than half of GHP in our dataset had no clear plans to roll out the training or to offer long-term support to newly qualified LTs (e.g. Because ToT is a process of expanding healthcare workers’ capabilities to realise specific achievements, it is amenable to analysis through the lens of Sen’s CA [11]. Students from the UK visited Malawi for their overseas elective and, senior teaching staff from CHS visited NSUK as part of a staff development opportunity. To this end, a team of midwives, obstetricians, a paediatrician, an anaesthetist from the UK, together with members of a charity dedicated to providing health training in Zimbabwe, travelled to the country in November 2011 to run a Practical Obstetric Multi-Professional Training (PROMPT) ToT course. Intervention. Dortmund. For instance, the WGO has committed to promote the centre and its courses among its networks, the BSC offers free international membership to local trainer faculty in Malawi and local training centre delegates. Though caution is required in assessing the above findings due to the small sample analysed, they do nonetheless reveal that various factors outside the specific training activities conducted by partnerships can either enable or hinder a ToT cascade: local conditions, lack of time and resources, inadequate facilities, inadequate institutional support (e.g. enthusiasm, willingness to teach, communication skills) was not routinely reported, suggesting that such skills were either implicitly evaluated or not considered part of the selection criteria. These were further refined and grouped into categories and subsequently into themes. See Photos. Both nursing schools identified reciprocal benefits from adopting the partnership approach, based on the WHO’s ‘twinning’ model between HIC and LMIC institutions [26]. Although most of the GHPs analysed were endorsed by national, regional or institutional authorities, in many cases endorsement did not translate into concrete support in the form of financial resources, assistance with recruitment of trainees, etc. Thus, over time, up-skilling through training should become self-sustaining. There is often an unspoken assumption that resource mobilisation by the overseas partner will help cover recurring costs such as refreshments, teaching equipment, travel expenses, etc. Nurturing LTs should not be limited to the initial training but should be gradually integrated into local mechanisms with decreasing support from the partnership. These factors challenge the assumption that simply increasing training capacity translates in a more capable workforce; we must therefore think critically about ToT beyond this single quantitative dimension. This alignment between hospital policy and the partnership activities enabled the delivery of 10 one-day training courses. Once the project was agreed and sanctioned at national level, the UK partner provided expertise to develop the educational programme and to enhance the educators’ educational practice using evidence-based teaching approaches that were firmly grounded in educational thinking.

Of significant concern was the fact that the running of training courses would affect the vital provision of health services by taking staff out of their jobs for periods of time. Dortmund-Huckarde Nord. In May 2016, the Centre was inaugurated as a WGO training centre, cementing the commitment of international and local partners to jointly develop and run educational programmes through the Centre. The role of these tutors was to train nurses at a number of Malawian colleges and hospitals in the principles of mentoring.

ToT planning and evaluation, therefore, requires capturing outcome as well as process measures, the ultimate goal and the steps required to achieve it [15]. Alle wollten sehen, was der neue Metzger zu bieten hat. The locally owned training programme brought into close contact local health workers and TBRAs, and this resulted in increased mutual trust between these cadres: TBRAs made 941 referrals to skilled health workers and the health staff began to value the role of the TBRAs as a local resource to draw upon for support and information at community level. through CPD) beyond the initial training given. The MNMC hosted a National Nursing Conference on Mentorship that was open to all schools of nursing in the country and attended by the Deputy Prime Minister and key members of the Malawian Ministry of Health. In the first year alone, 87% of all hospital staff were trained and by the end of the project, 252 staff members across a range of cadres had been trained, most of whom had never attended any obstetric emergency training. The long-term expectation was to establish a National Endoscopy Training Centre by attracting official recognition and funding both from within the country and from overseas. Yet, lack of properly trained endoscopy trainers in the country became an obstacle for meeting this requirement. The basic idea of ToT is to initiate a training cascade: skills and knowledge are taught to a small group of trainees who become trainers and go on to transfer those skills to others [9]. LT attrition was generally not captured by end of project reports, in part because these are usually submitted within six months of completion. A clear implementation strategy (at the organisational or supra-organisational level) is critical to cascade the training. „Xovrhxsü wzh zfh szoy Yfilkz zmtvorvuvig driwü droo rxs srvi mrxsg zmyrvgvm“ü hztg wvi Qvgatvi. GHP are rarely justified if their activities are not tailored to the local context and health needs [21]. This research was commissioned and received financial support from THET (travel expenses to MM). For this reason, a strong focus on strengthening the capacity of the healthcare workforce is crucial. Implementation by local managers or government officials ensures the sustainable integration of the training into local mechanisms (policies, processes, etc.) Unlike conventional content analysis, where coding categories are derived directly from the text, the directed approach starts with a theory or relevant empirical evidence as a guidance for deriving initial codes.

Geneva: Global Health Workforce Alliance and World Health Organization; 2013. It aims to help practitioners identify the negative and positive influences on ToT in order to develop appropriate and sustainable strategies. Such support can materialise, for example, in successful lobbying at supra-organisational levels to establish policies and processes that facilitate the up-skilling of specific cadres.

For their part, the Kenyan management team selected local community health volunteers to attend the ToT course as prospective LTs based on their enthusiasm to work with local communities beyond their usual health care roles and their interest in leading improvements in community health care. LTs’ long-term commitment to train is also critical to avoid the high levels of attrition common in LMICs. What matters from an evaluation perspective is not so much the functionings (i.e outcomes or achievements), but the choice and agency to achieve them and crucially, the conversion factors, i.e. General: Adds experience and leadership from the right side hitter position to the 2020 Tiger squad. This, in turn, contributes to complex migration patterns from low and middle income countries (LMICs) to high income countries (HICs) that exacerbate current workforce imbalances [3]. For the Welsh partner, this meant a rigorous recruitment process in line with the Health Board’s Volunteer Policy to identify and recruit suitable health professionals to design, develop and teach the ToT course to the Kenyan health practitioners. [27]]. Such requirement created a need for the mentorship training programme to be adopted across the whole of Malawi, thus ensuring the long-term continuity of the training.

The station is located on the Duisburg-Ruhrort–Dortmund railway (Cologne-Minden Emscher Valley Railway) and has one platform. In addition to clinical skills and knowledge training, trainees were also taught teaching and facilitation techniques, so they could effectively cascade the training to the TBRAs. Because capabilities are multi-dimensional, they must be evaluated across multiple domains. The arrows traverse the three structural levels suggesting that activities and processes at all levels can influence the contribution of each element to the success of a ToT. Mentorship of student nurses during clinical placements was not a formal element of nursing education in Malawi but conducted on an ad-hoc basis.

These are often given as a financial incentive to increase staff motivation to attend meetings or conduct work-related travel but can have a distorting effect on employees’ attitudes [24], for example by prioritising financial gain over professional standards. 2011;28:91–102. One of the difficulties with process evaluation is that it requires different indicators depending on which strategies partnerships use to build capacity [16]. 2005;6:44. Thus, both MTs and LTs must have the right blend of skills, experience and knowledge to train others (talent).

These can include the negotiation of workloads and financial responsibilities, the effective engagement with decision makers through alignment of objectives and post-project support. Sense càrrecs de reserva. Med Care Res Rev. Yet, we know little about the conditions necessary for ToT to achieve these positive results. As a result of the partnership’s ongoing work, in 2015, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the World Gastroenterology Organisation (WGO), British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG), the course accrediting body in the UK and The Malawi Training Centre to establish an international training endoscopy centre in Malawi’s second largest city, Blantyre.

This can be done by adequately identifying the most suitable LTs and conducting a realistic assessment of the organisation’s capacity to absorb the workload once individuals are released from their duties to become trainers, instead of uncritically welcoming overseas input that might, in the long term, result in undue pressure on the workforce. 2015;11:1–7.

For this reason, the CA represents a suitable conceptual tool to articulate a framework that helps us evaluate the extent to which ToT interventions help expand healthcare workers’ capacity beyond a unidimensional focus on skills training.

ToT evaluation usually involves assessing learning outcomes through post-course questionnaires, i.e. Given the interest on gastroscopy training from various hospitals in Malawi, an opportunity was identified, therefore, to develop a Train the Gastroscopy Trainers (TGT) course to provide teaching training and skills-enrichment for consultants.

This should include not only the ongoing one-to-one peer-support that is at the heart of GHP but should extend to providing access to relevant literature, further courses, and networking opportunities beyond the partnership. Such embedding of training activities within the cycle of service provision ensured a positive attitude towards local trainers and good support from their unit and employer.

Our findings, together with the THET’s vast experience of supporting partnerships and the analysis of the literature informs the conceptual framework we propose here. The partnership strategically influenced MNMC and other key policy makers to appreciate the importance of the training programme. 1), which is adapted from Cooke [17], has two dimensions: Three levels of impact: these are the individual, organisational and supra-organisational (networks, national and international bodies, etc.). The teaching of technical skills was the main focus of most ToT curricula, though pedagogical skills were included in 10/15 ToT projects. The key message underlying TRAIN is that the sustainability of a cascade depends on a number of factors being present or developing at different operational levels during the course of a project. The World Factbook: Maternal mortality rate [https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2223.html]. By the end of the project, all 16 health workers who completed the ToT course had cascaded the training to a total of 106 TBRAs. The training involved local faculty personnel observing UK trainers teaching the TGT, then delivering part of the training themselves with the support and supervision of the UK team, thus simultaneously training new trainers and enhancing the skills of the existing local faculty to deliver future ToT. In order to strengthen antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care in four Kenyan regions, a partnership was established between a Teaching Health Board in Wales responsible for delivering healthcare services to rural communities and its Kenyan counterpart. This is unsurprising, given THET’s long history of fostering partnerships among these cadres. Therefore, shared responsibility with clear commitments and transparent financial arrangements can help reduce barriers to access and avoid imposing undue resource burden on partners. 2014;7:23611. The research received no funding other than reasonable travel expenses to MM by THET. Although the framework will be valuable to health partnerships as a guidance in the design and operationalisation of ToT, we recognise that in practice it may be difficult to implement it in its entirety. Und sie erlebten eine Überraschung. In addition, MTs working in LMICs must have cultural awareness and flexibility to adapt training to the local circumstances.

The partnership, consisting of midwives from Wales as well as public health and maternal and sexual health service leads in Kenya, co-delivered a ToT project for local health workers to transfer key knowledge in maternity care to traditional birth referral agents (TBRAs). Our editorial policy, such that it is, reflects the interests, whimsies and peculiarities of the individual writers. The ToT workshops latterly became a combination of ToT and CPD for the new workforce and this kept more practitioners involved, avoided exclusivity and galvanized the interest of those who would like to focus more strongly on the trainer aspect of their service work. GHP tend to be established between partners in LMICs and HICs, though collaborations between institutions with similar objectives both based in LMICs (South-South collaborations) are becoming increasingly common. As with most development initiatives, GHP place strong emphasis in sustainability, which we define here as “the ability of a project to continue to function effectively, for the foreseeable future (…)” [8]. Our findings highlight that whilst a variety of approaches to ToT exist, there are a number of limitations that can prevent this model of capacity-building from being both effective and sustainable. This is because whilst each case study was chosen to provide a practical example of a specific element of our framework, they all interacted with elements from every part of the framework.

These mentors were therefore expected to train a new and different kind of workforce whose remit was still to be delineated. Given the above findings, we suggest that an effective approach to ToT must consider the multiplicity of factors that impact on the capacity of trainers to sustain a training cascade, beyond their own skillset. Shoushtarian, M., Barnett, M., McMahon, F., Ferris, J. PROMPT is an evidence based multi-professional training package for obstetric emergencies. S.O.S. This limits the opportunities for LTs to conduct supervised training. Many of them have written at least one book that I believe contains invalid information.
