SATELLIFE Deploys RepliGo™ in Africa
to Deliver
Critical Information to Remote Health Care Providers
The software improves the communication networks
of
health care providers in remote areas to help in the fight against disease.
(Fort Collins, CO) December 1,
2003 — Cerience Corporation (www.cerience.com)
today announced that SATELLIFE (www.healthnet.org),
an organization committed to implementing information technology to improve health
care in the world's poorest countries, has deployed RepliGo™ for Palm OS
and Windows Mobile™ Pocket PC throughout Africa in an effort to distribute
timely and critical information to health care providers in the most remote areas
of Uganda, South Africa, and Kenya.
Uganda Health Information Network has been using RepliGo
to move information out to where it is needed most and can now package local and
international health and medical information and put it in the hands of health
workers in environments where electricity, telephone lines, and books are not
readily available, and the Internet may still be years away.
"We truly appreciate [RepliGo] in our efforts to develop
information and communication networks to improve health in developing countries."
said Holly Ladd, executive director of SATELLIFE. "RepliGo software will
make a great addition to all of our handheld projects. "
