A HUGE success!
That’s how organisers have described one of the biggest medical conferences ever held in TCI.
Infection Control in Paradise saw scores of delegates gather for the two-day event at Brayton Hall in Provo.
Hosts InterHealth Canada put together a packed itinerary featuring guest speakers, workshops and presentations.
One of those speakers was Professor John Oxford, a world authority on disease control, while others included Caribbean expert, Dr Terese Maitland, and Alison Pyper, InterHealth Canada’s highly experienced infection control nurse.
And judging by the response from those who took part, medical conferences such as these are set to become regular occurrences in TCI.
Conference organizer, Susan Borden, said: “Infection Control in Paradise was definitely a big success. The workshops, with hands on demonstrations and interaction, were met with huge enthusiasm and interest.
“The lectures and speeches, particularly Professor Oxford’s, were fantastic too and everyone left enriched by his and the others’ amazing knowledge and experience in the world of infection control.”
Ms Borden thanked those who contributed to the success of the conference.
“Lots of people put a lot of hard work into this conference and, on behalf of InterHealth Canada, I thank them all”, she added.
“Thanks to our speakers and presenters, our delegates, sponsors and all those donated prizes.
“And thanks also to all at Brayton Hall and to Beaches for hosting our fantastic evening events.”
