I taught the STABLE Program in Kigali, Rwanda in east central Africa this past October at King Faisal Hospital. I had 22 students who were NICU nurses, residents, ICU nurses, midwives, and ER nurses. It was a very humbling experience to find students who were so utterly engaged in the class and so eager to learn! And how rewarding it was to be a part of bringing STABLE to healthcare providers in another country! I will be returning to Rwanda in July 2010 to teach STABLE again.
