Idlib Health Directorate is keen to strengthen communication and coordination with the World Health Organization (WHO) to identify gaps in healthcare and work on improving the medical services provided to the people in the region. WHO's mental health officer visited the provinc and alzeraa' hospitals in Idlib city, where she met with workers in the emergency departments (doctors and nurses) and the psychosocial support teams. The visit aimed to assess the mental health and psychosocial support services provided to beneficiaries at these facilities, identify the challenges faced by staff when dealing with suicide cases that are brought to the hospital, and offer suggestions to facilitate their working conditions. Discussions were also held on employee care and assessing the level of knowledge among the staff in the emergency and intensive care units, particularly regarding techniques for detecting and referring mental health cases. A WHO delegation also visited the Sikka camp in Harbnoush to review the health situation in the camp, in preparation for launching a project in partnership with the Idlib Health Directorate to combat scabies in the region's camps. #Idlib_Health_Directorate #WHO
