Target Groups Midwives, nurses, MDs and obstetricians from MSF with one of the following profiles: Currently working in an S&RH program component of an MSF mission; Involved in the planning and development of an SRH component in a current mission; Planning to work in a mission with SRH activities within the next 3 months; Preferably having done more than 1 mission with MSF; experienced staff will have priority over first-missions. Open to international and national staff Objectives & Content General Objectives ⇒ MSF health staff involved in SRH activities will be better equipped to implement the main components of the MSF SRH Policy in their projects. Specific Objectives Participants will understand the importance of SRH and its impact on global health (physical, psychological and social). Participants will have gained the knowledge and the confidence necessary to implement a (minimum) package of SRH activities, like various components of ante- and postnatal care, basic and comprehensive obstetric care and family planning, SGBV care. Participants will be familiar with several SRH ‘sub-policies’ and care protocols (e.g. regarding abortion care/ToP, care for victims of SGBV, STI treatment, FGM, fistula). Competences of participants in practical life saving skills (vacuum extraction, MVA, management of PPH, sepsis, eclampsia management, breech delivery, insertion of IUD, neonatal resuscitation) will have increased. Participants will have a better knowledge of issues regarding set-up, management, data collection and monitoring of RH program components. Content 14 MSF S&RH Policy Strategies to reduce maternal and perinatal mortality Implementation of quality antenatal care services Basic and comprehensive emergency obstetric care Managing childbirth complications Prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV Implementation of quality postnatal care services Laboratory services in S&RH Programming for obstetric and traumatic fistula care Safe abortion care and post-abortion care Female Genital Cutting Neonatal care and neonatal resuscitation Family planning Reproductive tract infection, including HIV/AIDS Teaching aids Care of rape survivors Teaching methods Plenary lectures, round table and discussions, role playing, technical workshops, problembased learning and case studies, picture analysis; and other methods. 15 Advanced Life Support Obstetrics (ALSO) Place/ Organizer: Date: Copenhagen (Denmark) / OCB 06-10 May / 07-11 October 2013 Duration: 1 week Group: 20 participants per session, including 3 OCG Language: English Required commitment for MSF CH staff: one year Application: [email protected], [email protected] [email protected] Target Group Midwives and medical doctors (priority to gynaecologists) with at least one mission prior to course. Open to international and national staff Objectives & Content General Objective To improve the maternal and neonatal outcome of obstetric emergencies faced in the field. Specific Objective To help the participants maintain the knowledge and skills they need to effectively manage obstetrical emergencies. The training aims to bring the participants to a high performance level in situations that, in most settings, are only rarely occurring, acutely presenting and that, consequently, not many birth attendants have routine in handling. Training in these situations increases the level of security and quality of the response to the life threatening complications occurring in pregnancy and childbirth. The course also serves as a multidisciplinary aid for training in obstetrics. Furthermore we hope that the training will: Ensure coherence and quality in obstetrical training at all levels by equipping medical staff working in obstetrics with a pedagogical framework for training national staff and colleagues in improved response to obstetric emergencies. Build capacities in and outside MSF projects by allowing our medical staff working in obstetrics to acquire qualifications that are recognized outside MSF and thus help validate the knowledge, skills and courage they usually obtain in MSF missions in regards to obstetric emergencies. Build a “pool” of MSF-ALSO-Instructors within MSF by certifying a small group of “MSF-ALSO-instructors” who, in turn, will provide further certification to MSF staff with external supervision of the ALSO organisation. 16 Content The ALSO training and certification provides instructions and training on PPH, Breech delivery, undelivered shoulders, neonatal resuscitation, eclamtic fit and vacuum extraction deliveries. A small group of participants (already ALSO certified) will be certified as instructors prior to the general certification with one day’s preparation beforehand. Teaching Methods Individually reading 400 pages of obstetric pathology documentation beforehand. For expats in the field we recommend arriving three days before the certification for reading as field life usually does not allow for this kind of preparation. Lectures and workshops using mnemonics (memo-technical tools) and hands-on exercises on mannequins.

Group: unlimited – 5 OCG candidates Language: English Required commitment for MSF CH staff: one year Application: [email protected] [email protected], [email protected] [email protected] Target Group CHSCM is aimed at humanitarian logisticians who are operating at a coordination level and are engaged in planning, resourcing and managing the supply chain and implementing supply chain strategy. Typically, candidates hold positions such as Logistics Coordinator and Supply Manager. PrePre-requisites While there are no set prerequisites, candidates are required to have experience as well as knowledge in humanitarian logistics and operations. A quick checklist (available at www.fritzinstitute.org) confirms candidates’ suitability prior to enrollment. In some cases, candidates may be recommended to take Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (CHL) first; however, CHL alone does not provide sufficient qualification to take CHSCM. Minimum 24 months MSF Experience in diverse contexts and the (potential) capacity to assume a coordination role Objectives & Content The CHSCM is a level 3, general course Objectives Build essential planning skills supporting a comprehensive process that meets program needs, adheres to standards and policies, and identifies required resources for implementation Learn to effectively track, manage and report on performance, supporting continuous improvement and keeping all relevant stakeholders informed Lead teams and manage relationships required for successful implementation of the supply chain activities and delivery of the defined objectives Content 76 PrePre-Reading: Supply Chain Structures The material in the Supply Chain Structures section contains detailed information about supply chain management, its processes and how organizations manage performance. This material provides essential underpinnings for the rest of the course. While it is likely that participants will be familiar with some of the material, review is recommended as some aspects may be new. Topics Covered: Supply chain concepts; Decoupling points; Supply chain processes; Supply chain types; Performance management; Supply chain alignment - UNIT 1: Supply Chain Planning In Unit 1, planning is approached as a deliberate act requiring analysis and assessment of the current situation, interpretation of policies, and design of solutions to fulfill the desired objectives. Supply chain planning processes provide the signal or trigger for the supply chain operational processes. Often, particularly in emergency situations, the expectation to act is high. But action undertaken without effective planning often leads to longer response times. Spending time on planning can make the difference between action that is effective and timely and action that is immediate but ineffective. Good planning will lead to better results delivered on time with the consequence that human suffering is relieved in a more cost effective way. Topics covered: Assessment of the program requirements and global supply chain strategy; Interpretation and application of organizational policies and standards in relation to the assessed program requirements and global supply chain strategy; Design of the supply chain and network infrastructure required to support activity, including end-to-end planning of activities; Identification of type and level of resources required for operation, including monitoring and control, and; Understanding and development of essential relationships - UNIT 2: Supply Chain Coordination and Operation Good planning does not necessarily mean that the supply chain will perform as required. Even with the best planning, the situation can develop in ways never anticipated in the planning scenario. Even if things happen as planned, performance must be monitored to confirm that the needs of the programs are being met and operations are in line with the global supply chain strategy. As such, this unit focuses on operating and coordinating supply chain activity. It involves monitoring and measuring performance to ensure that it is on tract to meet expectations. Where there is deviaition, appropriate action must be taken to restore progress. Topics covered: Monitoring and measuring performance, including the types of information needed and methods for collection 77 Reporting of performance information to stakeholders both internally and externally Improvement of supply chain performance through effective problem solving and developing action plans that resolve problems and restore effective and efficient operations Project management, in particular for special situations such as transitions and withdrawals Leading, managing, advising, and supporting people involved in the delivery of the supply chain activities Teaching Methods Distance learning – This course is 100% distance learning; Students receive and submit tasks to their individual coaches via e-mail Competence model approach – Students must demonstrate acquired skills through assigned tasks 78 Certification in Humanitarian Medical Logistics Practices (Medlog) Place / Organizer: E- learning / Fritz institute Date: All year Duration: 6 months Group: unlimited – 5 OCG candidates Language: English Required commitment for MSF CH staff: one year Application: [email protected] [email protected], [email protected] [email protected] Target Group Experienced logisticians handling medical supply chain issues Medics / pharmacists handling medical supply chain issues PrePre-requisites Less experienced logisticians may be recommended to take the Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (CHL) program first. Minimum 24 months MSF Experience in diverse contexts Objectives & Content The MedLog Course is a level 3, vertical course Objectives ⇒ Upon completion, logisticians will be able to: Plan and operate the medical supply chain with more confidence in knowledge of the special technical and quality assurance requirements of the medical supply chain Advise medical program planners on items’ supply chain and quality assurance requirements Make informed responses and get the information needed sooner, when medical program colleagues request support ⇒ Upon completion, medics / pharmacists will be able to: Plan medical programs with an understanding of what logistics can and cannot do, and the logistics implications of medical programs Handle the medical supply while following the supply chain and quality assurance requirements of the medical items Make requests of logistics colleagues that are more informed and specific to ensure the medical supply is properly handled and quality assurance is maintained 79 Content - Unit 1: Humanitarian Medical Supply Chains Medical programs and the supply of medical items place certain requirements on the supply chain process. An existing supply chain may not always be able to meet these requirements and will need changes to its design and/or operation to effectively support medical items. This unit looks at the different types of medical programs, their main characteristics, and the impact on the design and operation of the supply chain. It identifies that the characteristics of the items used in medical programs have significant implications as well as barriers and constraints to supplying, storing and transporting items used in medical programs. Topics Covered: Humanitarian medical aid; The scope of supply chains in humanitarian medical aid; Product characteristics that have supply chain implications; Supply chain characteristics, barriers and constraints; Supply chain information and documentation; Maintaining supply chain flow - Unit 2: Procurement Procurement is a key part of the medical supply chain process in ensuring not only that items are sourced and obtained, but that these items meet the quality standards required. Procurement in different organizations may be carried out by a range of people, with various job titles and, because of its importance, there will usually be clear procedures and rules that need to be followed. The unit focuses on the specific requirements for procuring medical items. Topics Covered: The function of procurement; The procurement process; Procurement characteristics that have supply chain implications - Unit 3: Storage Storage is a key part of the medical supply chain process in ensuring that whenever and wherever items have to be stored in the supply chain network, they are stored in such a way that the quality of the items is maintained. The nature of medical supply chains means that there are often a number of places (warehouses and stores) where the items are stored before they are finally delivered or administered to beneficiaries. This unit focuses on the specific requirements for storing medical items. Topics Covered: The role of storage in medical supply chains; Requirements for storing medical items; The role of inventory - Unit 4: Transport Transportation is a key part of the medical supply chain process in ensuring that whenever and wherever items need to be moved in the supply chain network, they are transported in such a way that the quality of the item is maintained. The nature of medical supply chains means that there are a number of occasions when the items need to be transported before they are delivered/administered to patients. The unit focuses on the specific requirements for transporting medical items. 80 Topics Covered: The role of transport in medical supply chains; Requirements for transporting and handling medical items; Using transport providers - Unit 5: Disposal • The activities of a medical program will lead to the production of waste. Some, if not most of this waste, is general waste that is not dangerous and will be disposed of in the same ways as general waste from other aspects of humanitarian aid programs. If not disposed of correctly, some types of medical waste can lead to risk to health and the environment. Additionally, unwanted and unused medical items often accumulate during a program and after the program has finished. These items will also need to be disposed of in a way that doesn’t lead to risks. This unit focuses on the specific requirements for the disposal of medical waste – both waste from medical activities and waste in the form of unusable medical items. • Topics Covered: The importance of disposal; The disposal process; Disposal methods; Consequences of improper or non-disposal of waste Teaching Methods - Distance learning – This course is 100% distance learning; Students receive and submit tasks to their individual coaches via e-mail - Competence model approach – Students must demonstrate acquired skills through assigned tasks - Scenario-based – Students are inserted into a reality-based scenario, in which they have to advise on and manage logistics functions 81 TECHNICAL TRAINING: TRAINING TRAINING OF TRAINERS 82 Training of Trainers (MDF) Place: / Organizer Ede (Holland) / MDF Training & Consultancy Date: 04-08 February / 30 sept – 04 Oct 2013 Duration: 5 days Group: 6 to 14 participants, including 2 OCG Course fees 2400 € Language: English Required commitment for MSF CH staff: one year Application: [email protected], [email protected] [email protected] Target group Any person likely to train personnel in the context of a mission or who has to coach teams working with training activities.
