My name is Maria Bhoke Mwita. I work at Nkoaranga Lutheran Hospital in Tanzania. To improve on medication dispensation and other pharmaceutical areas, I went for advancement of my education as a Pharmaceutical Technician at Paradigms Health and Science College in Dar es Salaam from September 2019 to September 2019, through sponsorship of EPN.
By the end of my studies, I had really improved on medication dispensation, filing bin-cards, taking stocks, and writing reports amongst other areas. Things have become quite easy for me now that I am more knowledgeable and passing the same to my colleagues.
One of the challenges we were facing as a hospital is that there were very few pharmacy staff thus work overload. However, I introduced work shifts that have really been sitting well with us. I also shared insights learnt with my colleagues on better drug management and proper dispensation. Besides that, I am now able to locally prepare sanitizers which are quite pertinent during these times.
The Ecumenical Scholarship Project is a lifesaver. I encourage other students to tap into the opportunity. Thank you EPN.
