Trinidad and Tobago’s Healthcare sector is now in possession of a new Learning Management System (LMS). The system was developed with the support of the United States Government through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The network will serve as a centralised digital hub for training, providing healthcare workers across the Ministry of Health and the Regional Health Authorities with structured and accessible opportunities for professional development and also aims at strengthening knowledge-sharing across T&T’s public health sector.
The programme was unveiled on Friday and is set to strengthen the use of the District Health Information Software 2, which is expected to improve the collection, analysis and use of health data, particularly in monitoring and responding to HIV/AIDS.
The United States Embassy in T&T also donated 28 tablets to the Ministry of Health which will be used to support data collection for individuals accessing HIV testing services, strengthening programme monitoring and surveillance efforts.The event also acknowledged healthcare workers who completed online training as well.
