Abstract
The Road2IR consortium, an interventional radiology (IR) training program at a public hospital in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, has produced Tanzania's first IR nurses. Nurses are vital IR team members and play a key role in caring for patients. Since 2018, Road2IR fostered a sustainable program via sending international IR teams of volunteer physicians, nurses, and technologists to train the Tanzanian IR team. Lead author and IR nurse, Rose Umbe, BSN, RN, shares her experience as a Tanzanian nurse trainee in the Road2IR program, while shedding light on some of the challenges the nursing profession in her country still face.
