{Grameen Foundation (GF),Accra,Full-Time, GH,N/A, N/A,30 Nov-2013};

Grameen Foundation (GF) and Ghana Health Service (GHS) have been implementing an innovative programme  the Mobile Technology for Community Health (MOTECH) with funding from USAID and the Grand Challenge for Development: Saving Lives at Birth. The purpose of the programme is to increase the quality and quantity of healthcare services provided to pregnant and lactating women with children less than five years in rural Ghana. Mobile Technology for Community Health (MoTeCH) was piloted in the Upper East Region and is now being scaled to cover Awutu Senya and Gomoa West in the Central region, Ada East and West in Greater Accra and South Tongu in  the Volta region.

MOTECH provides two interrelated services.  The “Mobile Midwife” applicationenables pregnant women and their families to receive pre-recorded voice messages or SMS on their mobile phones that provide time-specific information about their pregnancy in their own language (the majority of women select voice messages).  The messages continue throughout the first year of life for the newborn and reinforce well-child care practices and vaccination schedules. There is also a “Client Data Application” that enables Healthcare Providers (Community Health Nurses/Community Health Officers and Midwives) based at Hospitals, Health Centres, Clinics & Community Health Planning & Services (CHPS) facilities as well as private maternity homes to use the mobile phone to electronically record care given to patients and identify women and newborns in their area that are due for care.  The two applications are linked so that if a patient has missed treatment that is part of the nationally defined care schedule, the Mobile Midwife service sends a message to remind the patient to go to the clinic for that particular service and the nurse is also informed that the patient is due for treatment.

The Client data application feeds detailed clinical information into the District Health Information Management System (DHIMS), saving nurse time and increasing data quality at the district level.
