Rwanda has <500 rehabilitation professionals serving 14M+ people, including <100 Occupational Therapists and <150 Prosthetists/Orthotists. As NCDs rise, demand exceeds capacity. Evidence shows digital rehabilitation costs 67x less and delivers 32% higher QALY gains. Time to scale

The global need for rehabilitation has grown to 2.6 billion people. In many low- and middle-income countries, more than 50% of those who need rehabilitation still do not receive it. Digital rehabilitation can help bridge this gap, bringing services closer to communities. @JAMK_fi
NCDs are rapidly increasing in Rwanda. These conditions often create long-term rehabilitation needs that cannot be ignored. The solution is not only treatment, it is also rehabilitation.
Digital Rehabilitation presents a potential scalable tested solution!
NCDs are rising. Rehabilitation systems can't keep up with old models. Bold thinking is needed β and digital rehabilitation + AI is the answer. 67Γ more cost-effective. Evidence-based. Scalable across Africa. The future of rehabilitation is digital. Let's build it now.
π In 2024, NCDs caused 46 to 47.7% of medically certified deaths in Rwanda's health facilities, making them the leading cause of death nationwide. The data is a reminder that prevention, early diagnosis, and effective management of NCDs must remain a national priority.
Rwanda has 0.26 physiotherapists per 10,000 people. π³ For context β developed countries have 6.5. One physio. Tens of thousands of patients. This is the rehabilitation gap. And it's real. What's the solution? Technology π #Rwanda#Physiotherapy#GlobalHealth#HealthFacts
