Our Projects
Alajuelita, Costa Rica (FIMRC)
Alajuelita is one of the neighbourhoods that make up Costa Rica’s capital city San Jose's "Ring of Poverty". There are approximately 12,500 Nicaraguan refugees and impoverished Costa Rican citizens settled here. The majority of this population, comprising largely women and their children, is medically uninsured. FIMRC have a health clinic providing clinical care and health education. The project reports ‘our new database for patient records is in place and we are currently getting all of our records in the new format – thanks for volunteers helping out’. One of the doctors working at the project says ‘I’m very happy with the software, it’s very helpful and excellent’.
The clinic is recording consultations daily and had over 8,000 patients registered by January 2020.
Project Limón, Nicaragua (FIMRC)
The village of Limón is located 20 miles southeast of the city of Rivas in the Pacific lowlands region of Nicaragua. The region is popular for coastal tourism, namely surfing, and is known for its colonial heritage, beach communities, mountains, and volcanoes. Directly outside the upscale resorts, however, are numerous impoverished communities which depend on medical care provided by overburdened government clinics.
By January 2020, the OutreachEMR system had over 4,000 registered patients with good chronological medical notes. The system is delivered via our Cloud service.
IRHS Hyderabad (IRHS)
RHS (Institute for Rural Health Studies)strives to provide quality preventive and curative healthcare to some of the poorest rural communities in Telangana, South India. Drought-prone rural Mahbubnagar District is one of the poorest regions in India. With high mortality and morbidity rates and lack of access to basic health care, this large district ranks as one of the poorest in India on all measures: health, agriculture, education and literacy. Due to poverty-related illnesses coupled with lack of information and ability to travel, villagers find themselves stranded and helpless. The IRHS Clinic started to use OutreachEMR system in late 2018.
Matuwa, Uganda (AAH)
AAH partners with communities in rural Uganda to improve the quality of their daily lives and realise their future potential through improved education, healthcare and community development.
The clinic at Matuwa, Bupoto, is in an incredibly remote but beautiful, mountainous part of Uganda. The local population are subsistence farmers. They live and work on the mountain.
The clinic has developed a great team now who are all using the computer system. By February 2020 over 25,000 patients were registered. OutreachEMR has proved invaluable not only with chronological, electronic medical records but also by enabling the provision of essential statistics.
Bushika, Uganda (FIMRC)
Bushika sits at the base of Mt. Elgon, approximately 260km east of Kampala in a remote zone. Extreme poverty, a lack of infrastructure and low education levels all contribute to a complex health situation. Our first clinic, it has recently been rebuilt and now provides services to 14 different communities with over 50,000 patients registered on the database. As well as primary care, the clinic provides health education, antenatal services, maternity ward, HIV testing and counselling, laboratory services and malaria testing. Bushika is one of several clinics run by a US Charity: Foundation for International Medical Relief of Children (FIMRC)
Thanks to our EMRs this clinic provides medical data to the local District Health Department in a fraction of the time that it used to do when using a paper based system.
