Participates in defining, planning and monitoring medical activities and programs in the project in accordance with MSF's protocols as well as coordinates human and material related resources needed in order to ensure the quality of care provided by MSF.

Context specificities

In 2020 MSF OCB has handed over the responsibility for the implementation of their operations in Italy to MSF Italy, with the mandate to focus on migration.
In Palermo, MSF has been running a Survivor of Torture (SoT) project since 2021 with a service for the rehabilitation of survivors of torture and intentional violence.
The overall objective of the intervention is to reduce morbidity and mortality among migrants and refugees by providing those who have experienced torture and other serious forms of intentional violence with access to dedicated care services based on their needs.
The ultimate goal of the project, through a multi-year program (lasting a minimum of 3 years), is the creation in Palermo of a centre of national and international significance dedicated to torture survivors, integrating a comprehensive clinical component of primary and secondary/tertiary care, with a teaching and research component.
This meant to be achieved through the signing of two separate memorandum of understanding with the Policlinic (AOUP) "Giaccone" and the University of Palermo.
The model of care developed with the ASP of Palermo in 2021 and 2022 and revised in 2023 will be started to be developed within the "Giaccone" Polyclinic, maintaining the multidisciplinary and integrated approach among the different professional figures - medical and non-medical, MSF and AOUP - involved in the care of patients.

Quality of care

Ensuring that MSF medical guidelines are followed, in collaboration with the mental health and sexual reproductive referents and in coordination with the Deputy Medical Coordination.
Leading the design and implementation of a multi-year medical strategy for the rehabilitation of torture survivors, ensuring it aligns with international and national best practices (e.g., Istanbul Protocol, national guidelines, etc) and taking into consideration the long-term sustainability of medical activities through collaboration with health institutions and national health services with support of Deputy MEDCO.
Developing specific SOPs for multidisciplinary services addressed to SoTs within AOUP "Giaccone", to be systematically revised and adapted to the context and needs.
Overseeing the quality of medical care provided, including general medical consultations, pain management, trauma-focused mental health support and specialized secondary and tertiary care referrals.
Referring patients in need to AOUP Forensic Medicine Unit and ensuring a proper follow-up, including the medical-legal certificate issuance.
