How it Works
Make the Phone Call
A parent with a child experiencing an acute illness places a call to MotoMeds.
Speak to a Provider
Using evidence-based guidelines, a provider asks the parent a series of targeted questions about the child, their symptoms, vital signs, and medical history.
Develop a Treatment Plan
Based on the responses to the questions, the provider makes an assessment and creates a treatment plan (how and where to be treated).
Dispatch a Delivery
If the child lives in a MotoMeds delivery zone, a motorcycle will be dispatched to deliver basic medications/fluids.
Always There to Help
Many common childhood illnesses such as respiratory infections, malaria and diarrhea have well-established and low-cost treatments. These treatments are most effective when administered early. Children experiencing illness at nighttime are at risk of progression to an emergent state because most healthcare centers are closed.
Preventing emergencies is a critical healthcare service in settings where emergency medical resources are often inaccessible and prohibitively expensive.
