The Introduction to Humanitarian Healthcare Course has been developed through a partnership between UK-Med and the Faculty of Remote, Rural and Humanitarian Healthcare (FRRHH) with support and guidance from the educational and professional development expertise of RCSEd. Technical support was also provided by The Operations Partnership in the design and development of the course. This joint educational offering from UK-Med and FRRHH is the first of what we hope will be many resources that will help to create a professional home for humanitarian healthcare professionals.
The FRRHH is a global professional home for remote, rural and humanitarian healthcare professionals. The Faculty will support the needs of individuals and organisations working across the public, private and third sectors, by setting professional and educational standards to support domestic practice and overseas work.
UK-Med, a close partner of FRRHH, has teams deployed around the world in response to a range of health emergencies, including the support of vulnerable countries in their management of COVID-19. This course will form the initial stage of UK-Med's extensive training pathway required of those deploying into UK-Med led deployments.
To access the course as a FRRHH member, you are pre-registered and only require your RCSEd account details. If you are not yet a member of FRRHH, join here.
