MSSN training manual

The Management of Sick and Small Newborn charts and training manual provide an approach to the assessment, classification and management of sick and small (i.e. preterm and low birth weight) babies from birth, during their stay in a health care facility up to the time of discharge, and follow up. The purpose of the training is for health care workers to acquire the competencies to care for newborns in district hospitals. The training manuals are intended for in-service training of health care workers who already have basic training in midwifery or medicine. The  material can be adapted for pre-service training, and self-study. An exercise book accompanies the manual, and includes the practical application of the theory to cases, as well as introducing learners to the various job aids. During the training additional audio visual material will be seen, group discussions held and clinical sessions conducted.
