Join us Friday, February 23, 2024 as we welcome guest speaker, Betsy Smith, Duke University.
Ms. Smith will provide an overview of the international public health project at the Bugando Medical Centre (BMC) in Mwanza, Tanzania. The Medical Centre requested an update and revision of their current hazardous drug safe handling policy following the opening of their new oncology hospital and procurement of a containment hood to mix hazardous drugs. This quality improvement project has become an entire systems change for BMC hospital and has been completed in conjunction with Duke University, BMC partners, and national expert on hazardous drug safe handling. The Perrysburg Rotary Community Foundation provided grant funding for the Tanzania project in December 2022.
