The need to maxamise all available training was underscored when Permanent Secretary in the Premiers Ministry Mr. Joseph Wilshire told participants at an Emergency Care and Treatment workshop, that they should embrace every opportunity for training available to them.
He told participants at a brief opening ceremony of a week-long Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) sponsored workshop, hosted by the Nevis Disaster Management Office (NDMO) on March 10, 2008, at Long Point that he was hopeful that the training they received would propel them into a cadre of trained emergency care and treatment personnel.
“I wish to urge all the participants to be open, frank and involved. I am confident that the knowledge and the skills which will be acquired should enable all to perform the necessary task should the need arise.
