We focus on using simple and scalable technologies that allow healthcare providers to track their outcomes in real-time using cloud-based data collection software and analysis tools. We help our partners establish baseline data in neonatal mortality rates and stillbirth rates. Additionally, we use technology to track inventory of critical supplies and predict stock needs over time. We also work to bridge the gap between care delivery and data collection by developing software programs that facilitate care delivery while simultaneously collecting data that guides resource allocation. Global Strategies developed our own neonatal decision support tool, called NoviGuide that will began field testing. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Public Issue Advocacy and Outreach: Global Strategies works with local implementing partners in resource poor countries to develop scalable models for delivering care in environments with poor infrastructure. We share our models through publications in academic journals, presentations at Global Health conferences and meetings with key international stakeholders. This year Global Strategies shared NoviGuide at the Exponential Medicine Conference held in Coronado, CA. and shared a film on physical therapy and rehabilitation programs in rural India at the Bay Area Global Health Film Festival.
