COMPANY OVERVIEW:
PRONTO was born in response to the WHO Millennium Development Goals (MDG) 4 and 5 and a call from the Mexican government to develop a program that focuses on improving the quality of care for women and neonates during obstetric emergencies. PRONTO International is an obstetric and neonatal emergency training program that leads inter-professional medical care teams through a series of skills stations, team-building activities, and low-tech, high-fidelity simulations. Participants gain the knowledge and skills necessary for the immediate diagnosis, treatment and stabilization of obstetric emergencies in resource-limited settings through innovative training modules.
