MISSION

Touch combines the best of private and public sector approaches and expertise to improve the health of Tanzanians by strengthening the health system. We focus our activities on two key elements of the health system:

Touch expands its impact by sharing acquired knowledge with the local and international public health community.

IMPROVING THE QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF HEALTHCARE WORKERS

ENHANCING HEALTHCARE DELIVERY MECHANISMS

FRONT COVER A physician attends to a patient at Bugando Medical Centre (BMC)

1/3 of the total population of Tanzania (~17 million people) impacted through our programs in the Lake Zone that are addressing underlying gaps in the health system

17% of the total number of medical doctors in Tanzania trained through Touch support

16 training programs from the certificate to PhD level for healthcare workers to gain lifesaving skills

2,200 students currently enrolled at Touch-supported educational institutions, including 880 medical students

230% increase in enrollment of health students over past 5 years as infrastructure and faculty has expanded at Touch-supported educational institutions

3,100 healthcare workers trained with Touch support to date, including nurses, doctors, pharmacists, laboratory technicians, and other health professionals

2,600 mothers and 600 newborns will be provided free and safe transportation to a health facility each year to access lifesaving care for a pregnancy or neonatal-related emergency through our newly launched maternal health program

620,000 patients served through our Treat & Train Network of zonal, regional, and district hospitals in the Lake Zone of Tanzania

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dear Friends,

Touch Foundation entered its second decade in 2015, and we also strengthened our long-standing partnerships. We have been in Mwanza, Tanzania since 2004, and we are there to stay, working with our partners to bring better health to Tanzanians while looking for ways to spread our model of health systems strengthening for global adoption.

A cornerstone of our health systems strengthening work is our Treat & Train Network of healthcare facilities and educational institutions throughout the Lake Zone of Tanzania. A healthy network requires strong facilities and functional connections between facilities. The goals of a strengthened Treat & Train Network are to improve patient care, “treat”, and expand and enhance healthcare worker training, “train”. In 2015, we completed a number of major infrastructure projects, such as building a mortuary, an incinerator, and a dissection lab. We installed a Picture Archiving and Communication System to enable medical images to be stored digitally and shared between facilities positioning Bugando Medical Centre’s radiologists to provide more accurate diagnoses to a larger patient population.

We continued to apply our systems-level, problem solving approach to urgent health priorities including maternal health. As part of our Mobilising Maternal Health program, we launched an innovative emergency referral and transportation system for pregnant women utilizing community drivers and mobile money. We built C-section theatres and maternity waiting homes to support increased patient loads and held training sessions on emergency obstetric and newborn care.

We also extended our Global Development Alliance with USAID for 3 years. Our work with USAID is focused on transferring ownership of clinical rotations to our local partners and packaging the program into a scalable model for replication, in addition to improving deployment and retention of healthcare workers countrywide.

I am profoundly grateful for your generosity and partnership in bringing better health to Tanzanians. Your support enables us to do this important work.

With appreciation and warm regards,

Lowell L. Bryan
