Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>The 73rd Session of the WHO Regional Committee (RC73) delegates have welcomed the framework for implementing the global strategic directions for Nursing and Midwifery 2021\u20132025 in the WHO African region.<\/b><\/p>\n

The framework builds on the 2017 Regional Framework on the implementation of the global strategy on human resources for health which was adopted in the pre-pandemic era.<\/p>\n

It is also meant to guide efforts of member states in aligning, stimulating and sustaining adequate investments in nursing and midwifery and the broader health workforce.<\/p>\n

Speaking during a side event at the ongoing RC73 in Gaborone on Tuesday, deputy permanent secretary in the Ministry of Health Dr Onalenna Seitio-Kgokgwe said the country welcomed the four strategic directions espoused in the strategy, as they would contribute towards strengthening the nursing and midwifery professions.<\/p>\n

Dr Seitio-Kgokgwe said in response to the World Health Assembly 73 (30) which requested WHO to engage with all regions to update the Global Strategic Directions for Nursing and Midwifery 2016-2020, the country had responded by developing her first ever Nursing and Midwifery Strategic Plan 2020-2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe strategy articulates the commitment by the government of Botswana to transform the nursing and midwifery professions, and focus to their core business of providing evidence-informed interventions which are inclusive, participatory and relevant to their clients,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n

She also indicated that through the implementation of the nursing and midwifery strategy, the country had made great strides notably in the areas of leadership, regulation, education and training.<\/p>\n

Moreover, Dr Seitio-Kgokgwe stated that there was a strengthened senior nursing and midwifery leadership at policy and district level, whilst professional regulatory systems continued to be reviewed to enhance service delivery.<\/p>\n

\u201cEducation programmes are also being redesigned for effective learning towards better health service delivery,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n

She added that government had made a deliberate effort to increase the training budget and numbers of nurses and midwives being trained at advanced and specialisation levels.<\/p>\n

She however indicated that more work in the strategy still remained, particularly in the areas of research, workforce and human resources for health information.<\/p>\n
