Safer Anaesthesia from Education (SAFE)

A project by the Association of Anaesthetists and WFSA to equip anaesthesia providers with essential knowledge and skills to deliver safe anaesthesia

[WFSA @wfsaorg]

15 years of SAFE 🎉

At the WFSA Hub, we hosted a special SAFE session celebrating Safer Anaesthesia From Education and its global impact.

For 15 years, SAFE has strengthened training and improved patient safety, especially in resource-limited settings 🤝

With support from EKFS, we delivered two SAFE courses in Morocco — Obstetric in Fez & Paediatrics in Marrakech. 🏥
SAFE combines group discussions, low-tech simulation & role-play to boost life-saving anaesthesia skills for mothers & children. 💉👶🤰
