Recommendations in support of emergency care nursing activities at the Palestine Medical Complex emergency wing and Rafidia Hospital

Clinical support was also provided for the Head Nurses at Rafidia Hospital and the triage nurses at the PMC Emergency Wing. There are clearly many challenges to be faced as the Palestinian Ministry of Health works to reform and develop its health sector. It is important to note, however, that Palestinian medical staff, particularly nurses, are eager to learn and improve their skills and overall services to better serve the health care needs of the Palestinian people. This report highlights key challenges and suggested methods for addressing challenges and implementing change as necessary. Certain successes were also identified during this consultancy and it is recommended that various health institutions be used as examples for best practices, which will further promote reform and foster cooperation among the various players in the health sector.
