Digital platform enables nationwide care coordination, workforce mobility, and quality-assured home and community care
MyQura, a Nigerian digital health platform redefining how care is delivered and governed, convened its inaugural Care Ignite Summit, marking a decisive shift in the national conversation on healthcare delivery: care must be treated as infrastructure, not charity.
The summit brought together caregivers, clinicians, system designers, investors, and policy stakeholders to examine how technology-enabled coordination can move care beyond hospitals into homes, communities, and everyday life, while maintaining clinical governance, accountability, and scale.
At the centre of the discussion was MyQura’s digital care coordination platform, which has achieved hundreds of downloads and is enabling skilled caregivers to deliver care across Nigeria, supported by structured oversight, documentation, and professional standards.
From Fragmented Support to Designed Care Systems
“Care is not a service to be accessed only in moments of crisis; it is infrastructure that must be deliberately designed, governed, and sustained,” said Abiola Ayilara, CEO of MyCare Assistant Ltd, the parent company of MyQura.
“MyQura is a technology platform built to coordinate care as a system—linking people, professionals, data, and accountability across homes and communities. When care is designed as infrastructure, outcomes improve, trust deepens, and health systems become more resilient by default.”
This systems-driven approach reframes home and community care as a core layer of national health infrastructure, comparable to transport, energy, and digital connectivity—requiring intentional investment, governance, and technological backbone.
A Two-Sided Digital Platform for Care
MyQura operates as a two-sided care coordination platform, delivering value to both clients and care professionals:
- For clients and families:
Access to vetted, skilled caregivers supported by care plans, quality oversight, and continuity mechanisms.
- For caregivers:
Flexible work opportunities across Nigeria, transparent engagement, income generation, and structured pathways into advanced healthcare careers including nursing, medicine, and pharmacy.
“This platform allows me to be visible, to practice with structure, and to grow professionally while serving people who genuinely need care,” shared a caregiver participant at the summit.
Clinical Governance and Policy Alignment
Care Ignite also highlighted the importance of embedding clinical governance and policy alignment into digital care systems.
- Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, former Minister of Education and co-founder of Transparency International, emphasized the urgency of integrating care into national policy frameworks, particularly in light of Nigeria’s changing demographics and ageing population.
- Dr. Simi reinforced the centrality of clinical governance, noting that technology-enabled care coordination must be anchored in professional standards, safety, and accountability.
