Technology enables our Research + Innovation division
Our Research + Innovation division uses an Electronic Health System (EHR) to facilitate data collection. It compiles information daily from each micro-clinic, from telemedicine and our community outreach programs.
We also collect data from our laboratories, which are equipped with rapid diagnostic test kits and point-of-care diagnostic technologies to ensure accurate screenings.
“Unite for Health has a great vision and high expectations … with my perception to perfect my skills medically, administratively and other aspects of health … this is the appropriate place for me.”
CLINICAL TRIALS with underrepresented populations
Our goal is to host pharmaceutical clinical trials in our new Maternal Mini-Clinic in Dumbo Village. With our robust knowledge of children’s health in underserved populations and our access to mothers at all stages of pregnancy, we will provide invaluable data. Our patient population could also provide a drug company with data on H.I.V./AIDS, hepatitis, diabetes and heart disease.
Data from our patients could help specialized research for diseases like typhoid. Typhoid is picked up orally from contaminated water or food and can be treated with antibiotics but it is often misdiagnosed as malaria, a parasite, which is curable in 3-5 days with another class of drugs.
When research meets innovation, public health improves.
