A small group of Nigerian delegates, along with members of the Delaware Africa Caribbean Coalition, toured Beebe Healthcare facilities Nov. 17.
The coalition set up the meeting as the Nigerian representatives were looking to tour facilities to gain insights on ways to improve their own facilities, healthcare delivery and education of healthcare professionals.
The group toured the Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing, including the simulation labs used by nursing students. Beebe’s new South Coastal Health Campus was also toured, thanks to the leadership at the emergency department.
