  • Assistant Research Officer-Qualitative Digital Health Researcher

    Assistant Research Officer-Qualitative Digital Health Researcher

    JOB PURPOSE: 

    As an Assistant Research Officer (ARO) focusing on (UX/HCD/Health Informatics), will drive the creation of user-centered solutions for delivering robust clinical data pipelines and behavior change challenges in information use for routine-decision making. The ARO role is a hybrid role of user-research using qualitative methods, digital health, and design acumen. You must demonstrate proficiency in all aspects for this position. The ARO will work in the data BRIDGE project under the Principal Investigator to ensure project success. The individual will focus on both strategic and tactical aspects of the research project, attending to the day-to-day delivery while keeping sight of the overall project objectives. You will iterate on solutions, informed by user research, to deliver exceptional solutions to meet the needs of end-users (e.g. healthcare workers, public hospitals etc.) and key stakeholders (e.g. County health officials, MoH staff etc.

    Electronic Health Record systems (EHRs) have the potential to improve health data collection and decision-making in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) for monitoring health system performance, routine maternal, perinatal, and neonatal death surveillance and response (MPNDSR) and for integrated disease surveillance response (IDSR). However, existing EHRs audits reveal that they are challenging and expensive to sustainably implement in SSA. Therefore, in the short-to-medium term, paper-to-digital systems will continue to dominate. This project proposes to improve the quality, volume, and range of data collected through paper-to-digital systems in SSA while reducing the workload of information officers and improving data use culture. This will be achieved by (1) Co-developing with key stakeholders patient-level core dataset(s) for routine-decision making that are valuable to different stakeholders (2) Exploring the use of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to develop an efficient, user-friendly clinical informatics pipeline that leverages paper-to-digital systems and (3) Identifying how the core dataset(s) from the pipeline can be routinely used for multiple surveillance needs (MPNDSR/IDSR) and QI programmes through optimising Audit and Feedback plan-do-study-act cycles and mechanisms. This project aims to bridge the gap between data and information by developing a practical and sustainable solution for improving health data collection and use for routine decision-making in Kenya with an initial focus on neonatal care in public hospitals.
