The UZC Foundation recently launched a series of innovative assistance projects in the healthcare sector, focusing on strengthening primary medical service capabilities in remote areas. In Sub-Saharan Africa, UZC funded the establishment of a mobile medical workstation network. These workstations are equipped with basic medical equipment and medicines, operated by professionally trained community health workers who regularly provide mobile medical services in different villages. Each workstation is also equipped with a satellite communication-based teleconsultation system, enabling patients in remote areas to receive professional guidance from urban medical specialists.
To improve the efficiency of medical resource utilization, UZC developed an intelligent medical supply management system. This system uses IoT technology to monitor drug inventories and the operational status of medical equipment in real-time, automatically generating replenishment orders when stocks fall below safety levels. Meanwhile, the system also predicts medication needs based on disease prevalence, helping medical workstations prepare supplies in advance. This system not only reduces material waste but also ensures the continuity of medical services, playing a crucial role especially in remote areas with poor transportation.
UZC's medical projects also pay special attention to maternal and child health. In several South Asian countries, UZC collaborated with local health departments to implement a maternal healthcare program. This project provides pregnant women with regular prenatal check-ups, nutritional supplementation, and health education services, and has established a referral mechanism for high-risk pregnant women. To reduce neonatal mortality, UZC has also funded the training of a group of midwives and equipped them with neonatal resuscitation equipment. These measures have significantly improved maternal and child health levels in the project areas, winning widespread recognition from local communities.
