Caregiver

Community health workers and nurses at the primary level are often the first access to the health system. To care for patients in the best way and according to the latest standards, it is vital to have quick and easy access to the correct and latest information. The CAREGIVER TOOLBOX offers health care workers the opportunity for ongoing education to improve patient and psychosocial care by providing an overview of critical topics related to caring.
