Kathmandu Summer Critical Care Nursing Project 2011

In Summer 2011, Seventyfive nurses from around Kathmandu enrolled in an eight-week class to advance their skills in critical care nursing. The focus was ACLS response, ecg interpretation, and teamwork. This video shows the teaching techniques and includes an interview with Joe Niemczura, who led the project. Four other cohorts were also trained, totalling 190 nurses.
There is also a wordpress blog www.joeniemczura.wordpress.com
and a FaceBook fan page to accompany my book " The Hospital at the End of the World"

I salute your decision to give some valuable time to train LNC students. Thank you for teaching them.

I distinctly recall you telling our clinical group a few years ago that ours was the best group. Yet you told the Nepalese girls THEY were the best!
