Training your team
Training a local health team is one of the Health Extension Practitioner's responsibilities. The Health Extension Programme uses community member training as a means of making the best use of people in the community. The quality of healthcare and its equitable distribution in a population depends upon the staff employed by the health services, and upon community members trained with some knowledge and skills of health.
A team leader uses training to make sure that each member of the team can play their part in achieving their goals, both as an individual and with other members of the team. Training as a means of solving health problems must be closely related to work in the field, and to the management of priority health problems.
