Slumber Party in Kenya!

I just bought 4 tickets to Rwanda! Unfortunately we have an 11 hour layover in Kenya but I anticipate that we will all be so tired that at that point we'll be at the "everything is funny" stage. Looks like we'll be having a slumber party in Kenya!
So it appears that I will be returning to Kibogora,Rwanda with a wonderful team of health care professionals. The team consists of a family medicine doctor, a fellow nursing professor and a nutritionist. I will be delivering the completed trauma curriculum. My friend Lisa (the doctor) and I will be developing some teaching materials on basic cardiology for the hospital staff as they just recently got their first EKG machine.
Melba,the other nursing professor, will be working with the nurse managers on quality improvement strategies and Dorothy (the nutritionist) will be working with the child survival program. I also plan to do a little networking and note taking for possible future work on my dissertation. Stay tuned for another round of "Muzungu Moments."
