Omer Medical Logistics enables organizations to be good stewards of God’s resources; making our mission to help them gather and use exactly what they need.
Medical outreach is an invaluable tool in enhancing the effectiveness of evangelism and discipleship, whether domestic or international. Individuals and organizations who engage in medical outreach face common hurdles in planning and coordinating their work. Some of these hurdles are identifying what medications and supplies are needed for the population, determining how much to take, locating and
purchasing those items, and managing the actual clinical environment. The vision of Omer Medical Logistics is to enable organizations to be good stewards of God’s resources by making our mission to help them gather and use exactly what is needed for each medical outreach. Goal #1: Provide epidemiologically sound formulary recommendations. We use a clinic management information system, to collect geo-tagged epidemiologic data. We use this data isto refine formulary recommendations to minimize waste. We base formulary recommendations for chronic disease management on drug availability within each country / region to ensure long term patient access. We make general formulary recommendations available free of charge. We also provide a web-based tool to enable customers to create a customized formulary. Goal #2: Provide pharmaceutical purchasing, packaging and multi-lingual labeling. We purchase medications at discounted and wholesale rates. We dose-package and label medications to improve efficiency in the field setting. We use labeling which is patient oriented, using USP diagrams and indigenous languages, whenever possible. We assemble convenient and portable tools for organizing and dispensing medications in the field, and offer these tools either for loan or purchase. We sell pharmaceuticals at the lowest possible cost. Goal #3: Provide medical tools kits and supplies. We assemble portable medical tool kits for dental extraction, dental hygiene, nursing triage, physical diagnosis, wound care, and physical therapy. We maintain the contents of the medical tool kits at the highest quality necessary for field use. We offer medical tool kits either for loan or purchase. Goal #4: Provide technology and tools to manage health clinics in the field. We created a clinic management information system (CMIS) that incorporates patient registration, evaluation, prescribing, dispensing, and geo-tagging of epidemiologic data. We ensure that the design of the CMIS and its associated hardware is portable, durable, and simple to use. We provide electronic manuals and online training on the use of the CMIS free of charge. We offer use of the CMIS and associated hardware for loan. We offer tools to enhance management of the clinical setting, such as signs/placards and patient identification tags.
