Kasturba Hospital launches ‘KH Learn’

Kasturba Hospital, Manipal, on Saturday launched its continuing learning programme ‘KH Learn’.

Speaking on the occasion, Vice-Chancellor of Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) M.D. Venkatesh said it is important for every speciality and superspeciality hospital to upgrade their medical knowledge regularly.

The ‘KH learn’ continuous learning programme provides the right forum for doctors to know about the work happening across specialities and associated specialities.
