Lungs Course
What will I learn?
Improve your medical skills with our Lungs Course, made for healthcare workers in South Sudan who want to learn more about how we breathe and keep our lungs healthy. You'll learn all about how air moves in and out of the lungs, how the lungs are built, and common lung sicknesses like asthma and COPD. You'll also learn how to treat these sicknesses, including using oxygen and helping people get their strength back through exercise. Plus, you'll get better at drawing diagrams to explain things clearly. This course is short, but it's full of important information to help you take better care of patients and treat lung problems well.
