Philosophy and Objectives
Anaesthesiology today is increasingly
accepted as separate speciality throughout the world for its special and
unique responsibilities and its own code of professional behaviour. The
role of the modern anaesthesiologist include not only anaesthetising and
reawakening of the patient, but also minimising the physiological impact
of surgery and re-establishment of homeostasis. These are therefore achieved
through training.
The graduates of the Institution
are expected to attain the following objectives:
- clear concept of the professional
responsibilities of anaesthetist to the patients, colleagues and the
nation
- sufficient levels of technical competence,
skills and theoretical knowledge to discharge professional duties
- perform preventive maintenance and
basic service on anaesthetic equipment which she/he is responsible.
The Future
- Award the Advanced Diploma in Clinical
Sciences (Anaesthesia) by TUMAINI UNIVERSITY
- Update the Nurse Anaesthesia Certificate
to Diploma Level
- Link the Nurse Anaesthesia training
with other Training programs : American Nurse Anaesthetist Training
