Over 50 Vietnamese doctors, nurses trained in newborn resuscitation

The Newborn Life Support Course (NLS) has been developed with the support of the Resuscitation Council UK and is internationally recognised in Europe and across the world with the help of the European Resuscitation Council.

56 doctors and nurses are the first ever to attend an NLS course in Vietnam and they will implement everything they have learnt, become instructors themselves and start the process of setting up a National Resuscitation Council in Vietnam. Together they can set the standards in resuscitation and help reach our goal of zero preventable deaths of newborns in Vietnam.

Newborns Vietnam is a UK registered charity dedicated to reducing neonatal mortality in south east Asia, with a specific focus on Vietnam. Newborns Vietnam received the Certificate of Merit in 2013 and 2015 for Humanitarian Work For Neonatal Care from the Da Nang People's Committee./.
