Deanna Martin in Peru

ADRA PERÚ forma parte de una de las organizaciones de servicio no gubernamental más grandes del mundo, con presencia activa en más de 120 países. Esta dedicada primordialmente a proyectos de desarrollo sostenibles, que benefician a poblaciones en pobreza y extrema pobreza, o en alto riesgo social. (acceda a una mayor información) <http://www.adra.org.pe>

En el marco del proyecto financiado por el Fondo Global : "Fortalecer la Prevención de Riesgos de la Transmisión de Tuberculosis en los Hospitales", que ejecuta ADRA Perú en consorcio con el Grupo Levir e Imperial College, se desarrolla la capacitación al personal de salud sobre las medidas de control de infección de la tuberculosis con la ayuda de un nuevo método denominado VSI, creado hace una década en la Universidad de Missouri, EEUU, cuyo éxito en los Estados Unidos, Suecia y Sudáfrica ha comenzado a despertar el interés de muchos alrededor del mundo.

Perú, primer país de Latinoamérica en implementar novedoso método de capacitación

ADRA Perú Lucha contra TUBERCULOSIS con Método VSI

Fundadora Dr. Deanna Martin y su colaborador Dr. Edvin K. Hyotyla.

Instrucción Suplementaria basado en Video (VSI) , consiste en un sistema de entrega de información interactivo que ayuda a los estudiantes no sólo a aprobar materias difíciles sino a desarrollar habilidades en el aprendizaje y razonamiento. A través de un facilitador cuya labor es guiar al grupo en el aprendizaje fomentando la participación activa y colaborativa de los estudiantes, los participantes o estudiantes encuentran solución a sus respuestas y dudas, logrando un aprendizaje colectivo en un ambiente colaborativo.

Un equipo de profesionales del área de salud quienes a su vez tendrán la labor de capacitar al personal de salud de 17 hospitales y al Instituto Nacional del Niño vienen siendo entrenados . La acción tiene como fin disminuir el número de casos de trabajadores de salud infectados con tuberculosis, o de otros pacientes que acuden a los hospitales por cualquier otro problema de salud, en vista de que la mayoría de hospitales públicos no conservan medidas adecuadas de bioseguridad y control de infecciones en tuberculosis.

Por primera vez el método VSI será aplicado al tema de la salud pública y al contexto socio- cultural de Latinoamérica.
