The overall aim of this course is to facilitate implementation of MSF Sexual and Reproductive
Health (SRH) Policy in operation projects.
Target Groups
Midwives, nurses, MDs and obstetricians from MSF with one of the
following profiles:
Currently working in an S&RH program component of an MSF mission;
Involved in the planning and development of an SRH component in a
current mission;
Planning to work in a mission with SRH activities within the next 3
months;
Preferably having done more than 1 mission with MSF; experienced staff
will have priority over first-missions.
Open to international and national staff
Objectives & Content
General Objectives
⇒ MSF health staff involved in SRH activities will be better equipped to implement the
main components of the MSF SRH Policy in their projects.
Specific Objectives
Participants will understand the importance of SRH and its impact on
global health (physical, psychological and social).
Participants will have gained the knowledge and the confidence necessary
to implement a (minimum) package of SRH activities, like various components
of ante- and postnatal care, basic and comprehensive obstetric care and family
planning, SGBV care.
Participants will be familiar with several SRH ‘sub-policies’ and care
protocols (e.g. regarding abortion care/ToP, care for victims of SGBV, STI
treatment, FGM, fistula).
Competences of participants in practical life saving skills (vacuum
extraction, MVA, management of PPH, sepsis, eclampsia management, breech
delivery, insertion of IUD, neonatal resuscitation) will have increased.
Participants will have a better knowledge of issues regarding set-up,
management, data collection and monitoring of RH program components.

Advanced Life Support Obstetrics (ALSO)
Place/ Organizer:
Date:
Copenhagen (Denmark) / OCB
06-10 May / 07-11 October 2013
Duration:
1 week
Group:
20 participants per session, including 3 OCG
Language:
English
Required commitment for MSF CH staff: one year
Application: isabelle.perivier@geneva.msf.org,
isabelle.perivier@geneva.msf.org sebastien.billard@geneva.msf.org
Target Group
Midwives and medical doctors (priority to gynaecologists) with at least
one mission prior to course.
Open to international and national staff
Objectives & Content
General Objective
To improve the maternal and neonatal outcome of obstetric emergencies faced in the
field.
Specific Objective
To help the participants maintain the knowledge and skills they need to
effectively manage
obstetrical emergencies. The training aims to bring the participants to a
high performance level in situations that, in most settings, are only rarely
occurring, acutely presenting and that, consequently, not many birth
attendants have routine in handling. Training in these situations increases
the level of security and quality of the response to the life threatening
complications occurring in pregnancy and childbirth. The course also
serves as a multidisciplinary aid for training in obstetrics.
Furthermore we hope that the training will:
Ensure coherence and quality in obstetrical training at all levels by
equipping medical staff working in obstetrics with a pedagogical
framework for training national staff and colleagues in improved response
to obstetric emergencies.
Build capacities in and outside MSF projects by allowing our medical staff
working in obstetrics to acquire qualifications that are recognized outside
MSF and thus help validate the knowledge, skills and courage they usually
obtain in MSF missions in regards to obstetric emergencies.
Build a “pool” of MSF-ALSO-Instructors within MSF by certifying a small
group of “MSF-ALSO-instructors” who, in turn, will provide further
certification to MSF staff with external supervision of the ALSO
organisation.
16
Content
The ALSO training and certification provides instructions and training on PPH, Breech
delivery, undelivered shoulders, neonatal resuscitation, eclamtic fit and vacuum
extraction deliveries. A small group of participants (already ALSO certified) will be
certified as instructors prior to the general certification with one day’s preparation
beforehand.
Teaching Methods
Individually reading 400 pages of obstetric pathology documentation
beforehand. For expats in the field we recommend arriving three days
before the certification for reading as field life usually does not allow for
this kind of preparation.
Lectures and workshops using mnemonics (memo-technical tools) and
hands-on exercises on mannequins.
Exam by multiple choice tests and practical demonstration

participants will be familiar with some of the material, review is
recommended as some aspects may be new.
Topics Covered: Supply chain concepts; Decoupling points; Supply chain
processes; Supply chain types; Performance management; Supply chain
alignment
-
UNIT 1: Supply Chain Planning
In Unit 1, planning is approached as a deliberate act requiring analysis
and assessment of the current situation, interpretation of policies, and
design of solutions to fulfill the desired objectives. Supply chain planning
processes provide the signal or trigger for the supply chain operational
processes. Often, particularly in emergency situations, the expectation to
act is high. But action undertaken without effective planning often leads
to longer response times.
Spending time on planning can make the
difference between action that is effective and timely and action that is
immediate but ineffective.
Good planning will lead to better results
delivered on time with the consequence that human suffering is relieved
in a more cost effective way.
Topics covered:
Assessment of the program requirements and global supply chain
strategy;
Interpretation and application of organizational policies and standards in
relation to the assessed program requirements and global supply chain
strategy;
Design of the supply chain and network infrastructure required to support
activity, including end-to-end planning of activities;
Identification of type and level of resources required for operation,
including monitoring and control, and;
Understanding and development of essential relationships
-
UNIT 2: Supply Chain Coordination and Operation
Good planning does not necessarily mean that the supply chain will perform as
required. Even with the best planning, the situation can develop in ways never
anticipated in the planning scenario. Even if things happen as planned,
performance must be monitored to confirm that the needs of the programs are
being met and operations are in line with the global supply chain strategy. As such,
this unit focuses on operating and coordinating supply chain activity. It involves
monitoring and measuring performance to ensure that it is on tract to meet
expectations. Where there is deviaition, appropriate action must be taken to restore
progress.
Topics covered:
Monitoring
and
measuring
performance,
including
the
types
of
information needed and methods for collection
77
Reporting of performance information to stakeholders both internally and
externally
Improvement of supply chain performance through effective problem
solving and developing action plans that resolve problems and restore
effective and efficient operations
Project management, in particular for special situations such as
transitions and withdrawals
Leading, managing, advising, and supporting people involved in the
delivery of the supply chain activities

79
Content
-
Unit 1: Humanitarian Medical Supply Chains
Medical programs and the supply of medical items place certain
requirements on the supply chain process. An existing supply chain may
not always be able to meet these requirements and will need changes to
its design and/or operation to effectively support medical items.
This
unit looks at the different types of medical programs, their main
characteristics, and the impact on the design and operation of the supply
chain. It identifies that the characteristics of the items used in medical
programs have significant implications as well as barriers and constraints
to supplying, storing and transporting items used in medical programs.
Topics Covered: Humanitarian medical aid; The scope of supply chains in
humanitarian medical aid; Product characteristics that have supply chain
implications; Supply chain characteristics, barriers and constraints; Supply
chain information and documentation; Maintaining supply chain flow
-
Unit 2: Procurement
Procurement is a key part of the medical supply chain process in ensuring
not only that items are sourced and obtained, but that these items meet
the quality standards required.
Procurement in different organizations
may be carried out by a range of people, with various job titles and,
because of its importance, there will usually be clear procedures and rules
that need to be followed. The unit focuses on the specific requirements
for procuring medical items.
Topics Covered: The function of procurement; The procurement process;
Procurement characteristics that have supply chain implications
-
Unit 3: Storage
Storage is a key part of the medical supply chain process in ensuring that
whenever and wherever items have to be stored in the supply chain
network, they are stored in such a way that the quality of the items is
maintained. The nature of medical supply chains means that there are
often a number of places (warehouses and stores) where the items are
stored before they are finally delivered or administered to beneficiaries.
This unit focuses on the specific requirements for storing medical items.
Topics Covered:
The role of storage in medical supply chains;
Requirements for storing medical items; The role of inventory
-
Unit 4: Transport
Transportation is a key part of the medical supply chain process in
ensuring that whenever and wherever items need to be moved in the
supply chain network, they are transported in such a way that the quality
of the item is maintained. The nature of medical supply chains means
that there are a number of occasions when the items need to be
transported before they are delivered/administered to patients. The unit
focuses on the specific requirements for transporting medical items.
80
Topics Covered:
The role of transport in medical supply chains;
Requirements for transporting and handling medical items; Using
transport providers
-
Unit 5: Disposal
•
The activities of a medical program will lead to the production of waste. Some,
if not most of this waste, is general waste that is not dangerous and will be
disposed of in the same ways as general waste from other aspects of
humanitarian aid programs. If not disposed of correctly, some types of medical
waste can lead to risk to health and the environment. Additionally, unwanted
and unused medical items often accumulate during a program and after the
program has finished. These items will also need to be disposed of in a way that
doesn’t lead to risks. This unit focuses on the specific requirements for the
disposal of medical waste – both waste from medical activities and waste in the
form of unusable medical items.
•
Topics Covered: The importance of disposal; The disposal process; Disposal
methods; Consequences of improper or non-disposal of waste
