Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC)
A CommCare workflow and M&E system for preterm and low-birth-weight newborn care, deployed across partners in India and Sub-Saharan Africa.
What it does
A CommCare app deployed on the Connect platform that lets frontline workers capture KMC care delivery in real time, track risk flags, and follow up on infants discharged from facility care. M&E layers feed real-time dashboards that partner program leads use to spot adherence gaps before they become outcomes problems.
My role
- Worked with clinical leads and FLWs to map the KMC care pathway, then configured it into CommCare modules with role-based logic and conditional validations.
- Designed Excel-based dashboards for African partner implementations, tracking risk flags, follow-up adherence, and intervention timelines.
- Iterated workflow design with partner feedback; the Dimagi-published program has since recorded 675+ newborn enrollments and 1,400+ home visits.
