Mwanza — AGA Khan Hospital is set to establish e-Health and Mobile Health programmes in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare as innovations to facilitate health communication.
The Project Administrator, Agapati Sanday, told the ‘Daily News’ in Mwanza City that the initiative was meant to improve health services. “Apart from communication, there will be e-leaning service as well as the processing and transmission of information between selected primary medical centres of Mwanza and Dodoma regions,” Sanday said.
He added that e-Health will support delivery of maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH) care through connectivity and linkages in health facilities. Sanday noted that more specifically e-Health will facilitate capacity building of health workers and improve diagnosis and treatment at primary health facilities.
