Overview
The Basic Emergency Care Course (BEC) is a joint WHO/ICRC/IFEM learning programme for first contact health workers who care for patients with acute illness or injury. BEC teaches a systematic approach to the initial assessment and management of time-sensitive conditions where early intervention saves lives.
These courses will be delivered in Port Moresby, NCD, in partnership and funded by the UTS World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Development (WHO CCNM UTS). RECSI is supporting PHAs and local clinicians in the delivery of BEC training to build a cohort of registered facilitators and master trainers across a number of provinces in PNG.
