Case studies
Concrete examples of how we work with healthcare facilities, partners and patients in West Africa.
A hospital's memory deserves to be looked after together
In Côte d'Ivoire, 98.7% of medical records are still kept on paper, and over half of healthcare workers say this directly harms patient care. Facing a challenge shared by many countries, a unique patient identity, proper access governance, and infrastructure built to last 90 years are essential. Risin Health supports institutions through this transition as a long-term technical partner.
Clinical memory: the real subject of hospital digitalisation
A West African hospital experiences on average 5 to 15 power outages per week, totalling more than 8 cumulative hours. When an EMR project has not been designed to absorb those outages — under-sized UPS, no degraded mode, server not tolerant of brutal outages — every prolonged outage triggers the same cycle: server shutdown, black screen, return to the paper register, cumulative staff distrust, progressive abandonment of the digital system. Six months later, the software is officially deployed but effectively unused.
