Today was the first day of the SAFE Course.
After one year of planning, we finally launched the baby. It
exceeded expectations. We have a great facility at the Dereva Hotel.
It is a peaceful setting where the only outside sounds are from birds.
Most of the sessions are outdoors in gazebos, so there's lots of fresh
air and light. Even though we had little time for the Rwandan and
visiting faculties to prepare together, we still managed to adapt to what was
required.
The whole day has involved lots of hands on, interactive teaching.
We've been running scenarios with role-play and teaching hands on
skills.
Megan, who works with me in Halifax, has been a stellar course
coordinator. Who would have
believed that we could run on time?? Megan has had to deal with many unexpected
events, such as participants showing up with young children.
We are all exhausted and working full out, so this will be brief.
