Interplast is providing essential continuing education aimed at building safe and inclusive healthcare systems for patients and professionals alike.
Creating inclusive and safe healthcare environments
Free medical education
Healthcare workers, in all roles, in all societies, are at the front-line of ensuring that the most vulnerable people are able to access safe, equitable healthcare, and receive the care that they need.
These two new online education modules, developed by Interplast in collaboration with partners from across the Asia Pacific, address two key opportunities for healthcare improvement:
- Gender and disability inclusion: Gender and disability can significantly impact a person's access to healthcare and their health outcomes. Healthcare workers need to recognise how they play an important role in improving health outcomes for all.
- Safeguarding vulnerable people: Healthcare workers meet the most vulnerable people in society. It is important that these people can be identified and safeguarded so they can access the care they need, and do so in a safe, supported and effective way.
