    Capacity Building among Nursing and Midwifery Professional Associations in East Africa
    (Global Health Action, 2022-10-24) Ruhmel, Stephen; Ndirangu-Mugo, Eunice; Mwizerwa, Joseph; Pallangyo,Eunice
    Despite improvements in educational opportunities, policy changes, and pay raises in the nursing and midwifery professions in East Africa, poor working conditions, few professional development opportunities, and a general lack of respect for these professions predominate. These issues contribute to a low quality of care among a population with a high burden of communicable diseases. Health professional associations may help to address these challenges by providing a voice for nurses and midwives.
