Dear all,
These days, we have many happy recipients of Western Norway Regional Health Authority research funding in the form of grants, multi-year project funding and strategic initiatives. There is an incredible amount of exciting clinically relevant research that is done by great K2ers in collaboration with the hospitals here in Western Norway. Congratulations!
At the Western Norway Regional Health Authority Education Conference in Stavanger, representatives from the educational institutions and hospitals in Western Norway are focusing on how we can have a sustainable health service in our elongated country in the future with a good balance between broad knowledge and cutting-edge expertise. It is a clear yes to both – with a need to ensure that we are all generalists in addition to what we are extra good at, while at the same time interdisciplinary collaboration must be increased. Good professionally updated guidelines that are easy to find and holistic thinking. – We all make mistakes. Sharing experiences about mistakes reduces the risk of the same mistakes happening again and again by continuously increasing competence and improving routines.
The education award went to solid teachers in obstetrics who, through VR glasses and self-developed software, allow students to enter the female body and take the fetus’s perspective. Learning with “aha” experiences and in-depth understanding. Collaboration across educational institutions and hospitals will enable more people to learn more and ensure that our loved ones are well taken care of when there is a need for health care.
Have a nice weekend!
Camilla
