MCSP worked closely with the Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital (NMCH) to develop its nursing capacity in tertiary pediatric care, and to establish the hospital as a regional center for learning in the Southern African region. We also supported the mentorship of clinical pediatric nurses and nurse managers at NMCH by partnering with a US-based children’s hospital.

Since 2014, the Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital Trust had been designing, constructing, equipping and staffing a specialized pediatric hospital, which joined only four other such designated children’s hospitals in all of Africa. MCSP worked to develop a regional learning network of tertiary hospitals in the Southern African region to further advance critical pediatric care.
