[e-drug] Teaching RDU (5)

E-DRUG: Teaching RDU (5)
-------------------------------------------------------

In Oman we have many years of experience in this field. Our Directorate of
Rational Use of Medicines, created in the year 2000, is a national body
dedicated to training all cadres of health worker and investigating various
RUM issues. We have conducted many workshops and seminars in RUM for
prescribers, pharmacists and nurses and now we are heavily involved in
public education and conducting household surveys. We have had many
successes as well as discovering what did not work (at least in the Oman
situation). Our dedicated team is made up of physicians and clinical
pharmacists all with expertise in the field. We have many collaborative
projects and links with the universities and medical colleges here.
We would be delighted to speak with you and assist you in any way that we
can.

Kind regards

Brian Gunn
