The Product

Healthcare shouldn't start when you're already in the clinic.

Cura bridges the gap between Nigerian households and primary health centres. Families keep a digital health book. Clinics open Friday's queue from that same record. No lost folders, no forgotten histories, and no guesswork.

The Problem

What is broken about primary care right now

The Paper Chase

Patient history lives on paper cards that get torn, wet, or lost. When a child falls sick, families must retell their entire medical story from scratch.

The Adherence Gap

Without a log, chemists and clinicians can't tell if a treatment is failing or just forgotten.

The Clinic Overload

Primary Health Centres face massive Friday crowds with zero triage. Officers spend crucial minutes hunting folders instead of treating patients.

The Solution

One shared record, two dedicated desks

For Households: The Health Book

A living record on a single phone. Mother, child, and grandmother log how they feel, track medication adherence, and receive guided daily advice based on their history.

  • Log symptoms and medication in under a minute
  • Daily health tips tailored to your active logs
  • Export a clinical snapshot for your next visit

For Clinics: The PHC Desk

A command center for primary health officers. Upload outreach registers to instantly build Friday's incoming queue, view active ward boards, and read clinical snapshots.

  • Structured intake queue built from CHEW logs
  • One-minute clinical snapshots with vitals and history
  • Live ward boards to track active cases and handovers

How to use it

Enrol a person, keep the household book, then open the PHC desk and watch Friday's queue fill.

01

Enrol the person

A health worker or household member opens a profile: age, sex, blood group, height, weight, and known conditions. No paper register. No second notebook.

02

Log what is happening

Symptoms are scored for intensity and how often they return. Medicines are recorded with dose, purpose, and whether the person is actually taking them.

03

Cura reads the record

The assistant compares the new entry with prior logs and produces a short plan: what to do today, what to watch this week, when a flare-up needs rest or a clinic visit.

04

Hand the snapshot to a clinician

The health summary travels with the patient to a primary health centre. The officer sees a structured history instead of a verbal list given in a corridor.

05

Open Friday's queue at the PHC

The officer uploads the outreach list — or uses the Agege sample — and waits while Cura builds the incoming queue, the ward board, and a one-page note for the board.

What ships in the MVP

The first release covers the work before a person reaches a doctor, and the work that has to continue after they leave.

Continuous monitoring, not a one-off form

Headache, fatigue, sleep, and other complaints are tracked over days and weeks. The point is the pattern, not a single clinic day.

Medication adherence in the open

What is prescribed and what is taken are two different facts. Cura keeps both, so a refill conversation is based on the record.

An assistant that knows this patient

The chat is grounded in the person's own symptoms and medicines. It does not invent a stranger and lecture them.

Built for low-resource clinics

The MVP runs in a browser on a cheap Android phone. No extra hardware. No lab cart. Designed for PHCs, CHEWs, and NGO outreach teams in Nigeria.

A clinical snapshot in one minute

Officers get age, vitals, active complaints, current drugs, and known issues on one page — enough to start a consult without hunting a folder.

Guidance people can follow at home

Tips are short, local, and tied to the log: hydrate before a migraine tablet, keep magnesium at the same hour, put the phone outside the room.

A household book

Mother, child, and grandmother on one phone. The unit that holds health is the same unit that holds money.

A CHEW caseload and a handover sheet

Who missed a tablet. Who needs Friday clinic. A one-page snapshot the officer can read before the next person sits down.

A PHC desk that receives the book

Upload the Friday register. Cura builds the incoming queue, the ward load, and a board note from the same eight people the CHEW already logged.

What people leave with

For patients and families

  • A living record of how they feel, not a story they have to remember under pressure
  • A household book — child, parent, and grandmother on one phone
  • A handover sheet they can show at a PHC, chemist, or outreach post

For community health workers

  • Enrolment and follow-up on a phone they already carry
  • A caseload with risk flags: stable, watch, needs Friday clinic
  • SMS from the desk, tied to the person, not a blast list

For primary health centres and partners

  • Structured intake instead of scraps of paper
  • Friday's incoming queue from the same ward book the CHEW already carries
  • A ward board and a one-page note a director can read before a meeting
