The training workshops for the prevention of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) and the proper usage of cuff pressure monitor were conducted on June 15. A total of 40 staff consisted of head nurses and ICPs attended.

This training was proposed by both the Nursing Department and the Infection Control Department based on the request from nurses on site. Ms. Kurosu gave a lecture on VAP prevention and Mr. Moriyama mentored the workshop on the proper usage of cuff pressure monitor respectively.

In about one year and a half since the beginning of the Project, Japanese experts and the counterparts have developed a good relationship. Now the counterparts actively give constructive proposals to the Project.

The Project will continue to make efforts to respond appropriately to the on-site needs in cooperation with the Nursing Department, the Infection Control Department, the Quality Management Department, etc.
