The Offa Descendants Union North America (ODUNA) has another groundbreaking no-paper based 2025 Medical Outreach.
In a significant step towards advancing healthcare accessibility, Toybeth Systems LLC, a global technology company and a leader in telehealth solutions, collaborated with the Offa Descendants Union North America (ODUNA) for its annual medical outreach program, held from Monday, January 12, to Friday, January 17, 2025.
The week-long event delivered an extensive range of healthcare services to the community, featuring medical professionals from the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH), General Hospital Offa, Kwara State College of Health Technology, and Sakinah Medical Outreach. Beneficiaries received free diagnostic tests, treatments, and screenings. Services also included the distribution of free medications, prescription glasses, dental care, and surgeries for conditions such as hernia and cataracts.
A standout feature of the outreach was the deployment of the Iturah™ EMR & Telemedicine System, a cutting-edge platform that streamlined patient registration, vital checks, and consultations with doctors on-site and virtually.
By Thursday, January 16, 2025, the platform had registered over 2,000 patients, exemplifying its capacity to enhance efficiency and improve patient outcomes. ODUNA had also used Iturah EMR for their 2024 Medical Mission.
Olaiya Quam, Country Tech Support for Iturah, emphasized the platform’s impact, stating, “The Iturah EMR & Telemedicine System is being utilized for patient registration, vitals monitoring, and seamless connection with doctors both virtually and on-site. Iturah ensures efficient data management in compliance with data protection regulations, providing doctors access to detailed patient records while facilitating data-driven insights based on age, health conditions, and other demographics.” He added that the platform’s integration of data science allows for comprehensive analysis and documentation, enabling better understanding and treatment outcomes for patients.
Habeebullahi Lawal, the team lead for Iturah, highlighted how the platform has revolutionized the medical outreach experience. “In previous years, manual processes such as filling out forms and using spreadsheets caused delays and frustration. Today, with Iturah, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and hospital administrators can efficiently manage patient records, track vital statistics, and perform key medical tasks with ease,” he said.
Lawal further noted that the system also supports lab technicians and pharmacists, allowing them to input and manage patient data for tests such as blood glucose levels and HIV screening. “The platform generates real-time statistics on patient registrations and attendance, making operations more efficient and impactful.”
The use of Iturah for Medical Outreaches underscores the transformative potential of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and telemedicine in community health initiatives. By bridging the gap between technology and healthcare, Iturah enhanced ODUNA to deliver immediate benefits to over 2,500 patients in less than 72 hours and set a benchmark for efficient and scalable healthcare solutions.
Iturah EMR & Telemedicine platform from Toybeth Systems LLC continues to position itself as a leader in innovative telehealth solution, driving accessibility and improving healthcare outcomes across communities worldwide.
