International — In order to scale-up the replacement of mercury–based medical devices around the world, HCWH has put together a guide that systematizes the basic steps in mercury substitution.
The guide meets Short-Term Goal #7 of the WHO-HCWH Global Mercury-Free Health Care Initiative: "Develop and globally distribute a training module focused on substituting mercury-based medical devices."
The guide is available in different languages: Visit the Mercury Eliminination Guides Web Page in the Mercury Free Health Care Site.
