Fair Future Foundation’s Primary Medical Care initiative is a lifeline for remote communities in East Sumba. By providing essential healthcare where access is nearly impossible, this program saves lives. Our approach empowers local women as Kawan Sehat health agents, ensuring that even the most isolated villages receive vital medical attention. This unique program is building healthier, more resilient communities.
The Primary Medical Care category documents the delivery of essential healthcare services in ultra-rural settings where access to doctors and facilities is limited or absent. Articles describe how trained health agents provide first-line care, manage common illnesses, treat injuries, monitor chronic conditions, and identify early warning signs requiring referral. This work follows WHO primary health care principles, combining treatment, prevention, and continuity of care. By bringing structured medical care directly to communities, this category highlights measurable improvements in health outcomes, safety, and resilience under real field constraints.
The Primary Medical Care program focuses on disseminating medical guidance. We offer straightforward, practical advice to Kawan Sehat agents, who then relay it to rural communities. Now, we’re also sharing this information on Instagram (@fairfuturefoundation) and our website. These tips have the potential to save lives—help us spread the word!
