On October 24, a training session was held on the specific aspects of working with patients with tuberculosis and the development of counseling skills.

The training was attended by nurses from the Pulmonology and Inpatient Departments of the National Center for Infectious Diseases.

During the training, participants strengthened their knowledge of modern approaches to tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment, learned about the principles of patient-centered care and mechanisms for reducing stigma and discrimination, and explored practical ways to improve their counseling and communication skills.

The training is accredited by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Armenia. Nurses who successfully complete the training receive six theoretical credits. This initiative aims to strengthen nurses’ professional capacities and contribute to improving the quality of care and support provided to patients.

The training is conducted within the framework of the “Care and Support for People with TB” program.
