The programme uses three approaches: Teledermatology, Jornadas (dermatological workshops for community healthcare workers) and Research Trips.
‘Community Dermatology’ has been successful in managing skin health problems in remote communities. In 2018, over 1,100 individuals benefited from Teledermatology courses and over 800 community members received dermatological treatment during the Jornadas and Research Trips. The success of this programme proves that this type of healthcare delivery and education can benefit remote communities with a high burden of dermatological disease.
