One of our main focuses as a charity is the care of our staff. We understand that by caring for and training up a solid team of caregivers, we are vastly improving the care we are able to provide for our children.
This year, we officially kicked off what will be a part of NCV forever – una cultura de capacitación (culture of training). We are working closely with the orgnaization Vivo en Positivo on the HIV trainings, and are grateful to KidsAlive and Nurturing God’s Way for the provision of materials for the childcare trainings.
Below is a list of the first set of weekly trainings we are offering our staff:
March 18: General Information on HIV
March 25: Biosecurity, Non-Occupational Accidents
