Scriptapedia/Full-day workshop sample

This full-day workshop sample is based on a research project to apply community based group model building to the implementation of pediatric critical care in resource limited settings. The first day of workshops were conducted with two separate groups consisting of a group of hospital staff in leadership positions, and a second group of front line/ direct service staff in the pediatric care team. The second day of workshop included participants from both groups.
