OUR GLOBAL HEALTH:ASSIST PROGRAM RESPONDED SWIFTLY TO THE NEEDS CREATED BY THE PANDEMIC. SOME HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE THE OXYGEN:ASSIST PROGRAM WHICH COMPLETED AN OXYGEN PSA (PRESSURE SWING ABSORPTION)PLANT IN NEJO, ETHIOPIA AND RAMPED UP ALL PSA PSA OXYGEN PRODUCTION PLANTS TO MAX PRODUCTION. IN 2020, 49,000+ PATIENTS WERE TREATED WITH OXYGEN FROM OUR PLANTS; 93 HOSPITALS WERE SERVED WITH ACCESS TO LIFE-SAVING OXYGEN AND 50,000+ LARGE CYLINDERS OF MEDICAL OXYGEN WERE DISTRIBUTED. 10,000+ HEALTHCARE AND BIOMEDICAL-TECHNICIAN LEARNERS ACCESSED OUR TELE-MENTORING SESSIONS, 890 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE WORK ORDERS WERE COMPLETED BY OUR TEAMS IN ETHIOPIA, WHICH INCREASED MEDICAL EQUIPMENT UPTIME BY 23% DURING COVID-19 SURGES. ASSIST INTERNATIONAL'S OXYGEN:ASSIST PROGRAM AIMS TO SAVE LIVES BY GETTING OXYGEN INTO THE LUNGS OF PATIENS WHO NEED IT, AND IN THE PANDEMIC, OXYGEN WAS NEEDED MORE THAN EVER. OUR EXPERIENCE HAS TAUGHT US THAT SUPPLYING OXYGEN CONCENTRATORS OR PLANTS ALONE IS INSUFFICIENT TO IMPROVE HEALTH OUTCOMES, AND THEREFORE, OUR FOCUS HAS BEEN ON HEALTH SYSTEM TRANSFORMATION, ACHIEVED BY OUR COMPREHENSIVE, 'ECOSYSTEM' MODEL OF MEDICAL OXYGEN PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION, AND TRAINING. BY ESTABLISHING LOCALLY OPERATED OXYGEN CENTERS THAT PROVIDE INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS TO EACH OF THE BARRIERS FACED IN RESOURCE-CONSTRAINED SETTINGS, THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN DRASTICALLY IMPROVING OXYGEN AVAILABILITY, STRENGTHENING HEALTH SYSTEMS, AND SAVING LIVES. IN ADDITION, OUR GLOBAL HEALTH:ASSIST PROGRAM IMPACTED 59 HEALTH FACILITIES THROUGH THE SAFE SURGERY PROGRAM (SS2020)IN 2020 ALONE. IN 2020, WE ALSO MOBILIZED A CONSORTIUM OF 15+ EXPERT ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS TO CREATE AN INNOVATIVE TELE-EDUCATION AND TELE-MENTORSHIP PORTFOLIO IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PROJECT ECHO AND STANFORD GLOBAL ANETHESIA. THIS PORTFOLIO HAS REACHED OVER 10,000 LEARNERS FROM 128 COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD WITH VIRTUAL TRAININGS RELATED TO CLINICAL AND TECHNICAL TOPICS ON COVID-19, OXYGEN THERAPY, AND CRITICAL CARE; AND TODAY, OUR TELE-MENTORING MODEL IS FEATURED IN THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION'S (WHO'S) "COMPENDIUM OF INNOVATIVE HEALTH TECHNOLOGIES FOR LOW RESOURCE SETTINGS".GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided––
