By: Vecna Cares Charitable Trust Additionally, Vecna replaced the standard CliniPAK™ solar panel with a permanent solar panel at the Olereko clinic in Kenya. The larger and more robust solar panel will power not only the CliniPAK computers but also a vaccine refrigerator and electric lights for after–hours care. Vecna is currently working with the Zanzibar Ministry of Health (MoH) in Tanzania to define the scope of electronic medical records (EMRs) for implementation at the Mnazi Mmoja National Hospital. MoH and Vecna are working to align this project with the goals of the national eHealth Strategic Plan. The strategic plan pushes Tanzania toward adopting eHealth for providing access to information and telemedicine, and for improving data collection and public health surveillance through EMRs. By taking these measures, the eHealth Strategic Plan seeks to advance medicine, research and, ultimately, care. # # # Vecna Cares Charitable Trust was established with the mission to build strong and healthy communities by improving access, quality, prevention, and critical needs of healthcare programs especially for resource-poor, rural and under-served populations.
