TANNA's Emergency Response Training Program has revolutionized emergency care capabilities at Muhimbili National Hospital - Mloganzila. Over three intensive months, we trained 100+ nurses in advanced emergency response techniques, achieving a 95% pass rate and directly contributing to saving 30+ lives through improved emergency interventions.

This critical training initiative emerged from the urgent need to enhance emergency response capabilities and reduce preventable deaths in our healthcare facility. Through intensive hands-on training, simulation exercises, and continuous assessment, we have transformed our nursing workforce into a highly skilled emergency response team capable of handling the most challenging medical emergencies.
