In Jordan, SALAM partners are preparing for local implementation by aligning telecardiology, remote diagnostics and mobile medical support with the needs of frontline clinics and underserved communities.
In June and July 2026, SALAM partners Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST) and Caritas Jordan met at the Caritas health centres in Irbid and Mafraq to prepare the local implementation of the project’s digital health services.
The visits brought researchers and frontline healthcare professionals together around a practical goal: adapting telecardiology, remote diagnostics and mobile medical support to the needs and routines of local clinics, so that specialist care can reach communities where distance and limited resources remain barriers.
During the visits, the JUST team worked directly with Caritas healthcare providers and medical staff to review frontline workflows, align core project deliverables and discuss the planned clinical services. Particular attention was given to how primary care centres could connect with specialist telecardiology and diagnostic hubs, and how mobile medical units could support patients beyond the health centres.
Starting from the daily working practices of Caritas teams gave the partners a clearer understanding of how the services should operate, how staff will use them and which technical and organisational requirements must be addressed before implementation.
The joint review in Irbid and Mafraq marked a concrete step from project planning towards local implementation. By combining JUST’s academic expertise with Caritas Jordan’s experience in frontline healthcare, the partners are preparing a model designed to improve access to specialist cardiovascular services for underserved local and refugee communities.
The cooperation in Jordan shows how SALAM’s digital solutions are being shaped around real services and the people who use them. This local partnership is laying the groundwork to bring specialist heart care closer to communities that need it most.
