Active TB Qualitative Assessment - Project Participation Request
Martha's Vineyard & Nantucket Public Health are hoping to learn from their public health peers in rural settings (specifically local health departments where less than 40 hours of collective staff time per week is spent on active TB management) to identify areas of success and innovation as well as document the most common and difficult challenges to managing active TB in resource-constrained environments. They are aiming to coalesce best practice tools and models for TB case management in rural settings which can then be shared with participants and rural health departments. If you would like to participate in this project being done by Claire Myers, an intern with the local health departments in Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts, please reach out to her at Claire.Myers@emory.edu. This project will be open between now and August 31, 2024.
