A cesarean section underway at Masanga Hospital, CapaCare's main training hospital in Sierra Leone. All Sierra Leone trainees initially spend 6-9 months at Masanga, where they are supervised by resident surgeons and attend a series of training modules by visiting national and international trainers. They then continue training with a series of six-month rotations in collaborating hospitals for a total of two years of education.
