BREWERVILLE, LIBERIA (Aug. 22, 2017) - The Ministry of Health of Liberia for a long time did not have a centralized system to communicate vital information to healthcare workers across the country at the same time. UNICEF and USAID are working together to create a platform that utilized mobile phones to facilitate a two way communications system between healthcare workers and the centralized ministry. Because of this new technology, healthcare workers across the country can receive text messages with important information about health emergencies. They are also able to use their phones to inform the Ministry of Health about the status of stocks in the clinic.
Since the Ebola outbreak, medical professionals started using the new platform and now feels more connected and informed. (Photo by Sarah Grile.)
