The Ministry of Health and Sanitation (MOHS) has capacitated psychiatrists and 32 mental health doctors and nurses as part of improving sustainable health in the country.
This came as part of the concept that trained caregivers are critical to upholding the fundamental human rights of people living with mental health problems in the country.
As the plan to have the mental health sector very reactive to maintaining the status, the government of Sierra Leone through the Ministry of health has decided to have these doctors and nurses well-capacitated to meet with the trend and save more lives in the country.
