TRIAS is a new Electronic Medical Records system that is being used at Kompiam District Hospital. I believe most, if not all Rural Hospitals do not yet have an electronic system. 

In this session, a demo will be done by the founder himself on the TRIAS application. It’s you the rural doctors who will really assess and recommend or not recommend for your respective hospitals. The aim of the PNG Rural/Remote Society is to encourage two or three other hospitals to trial TRIAS and see if it is workable, or if it is a system that can be used in all rural hospitals. I encourage all rural doctors to please attend the virtual demo session. We are the voice of rural health, and that includes recommending new medical technologies to rural areas. 

The Christian Health services are looking into TRIAS with great interest and our input will really help in decision-making. So please do attend and together we can influence decision-making to advance rural health services. 

Cheers all

President, PNG SRRH

In a bid to continue to connect doctors and the entire cadre of health professionals serving in the rural areas of Papua New Guinea the society will on the first Thursday of each month host a virtual medical education seminar open to any medical professional.

As all health workers know medicine is an ever evolving art and we are students for the entirety of our professional lives.

Commencing this afternoon the PNG Society for Rural and Remote Health will be hosting monthly virtual CMEs open to its members and any interested health workers.

Apologies on the incorrect date which should be 7th July 2022. Our very own former society president, Dr David Mills will kick off the monthly seminar. Please find zoom links as follows: Meeting ID: 884 6136 8026 Passcode: 261340
