By using their skills as a <a href=\"https:\/\/ontargetinteractive.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">digital marketing agency<\/a>, they strive to help in any way possible. When <a href=\"https:\/\/ontargetinteractive.com\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Terry Oehrke, CEO of Ontarget<\/a>, heard about Touch A Life&#8217;s need for a new Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system, he immediately offered his company&#8217;s services free of charge.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-2012\" alt=\"OT-Logo-2013\" src=\"https:\/\/www.touchalifekids.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/OT-Logo-2013.png\" width=\"389\" height=\"172\" \/>With a quickly approaching deadline and a wide range of data, Brian Hickey, Ontarget&#8217;s head of Action and Architecture, met with the Touch A Life staff to determine the needed criteria of the new EMR database. Because children are rescued and brought to <a title=\"Touch A Life Care Center\" href=\"https:\/\/www.touchalifekids.org\/our-programs\/ghana\/touch-a-life-care-center\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Touch A Life&#8217;s Care Center in Ghana<\/a> with little or no written medical records, the goal of the new system was to create a digital history of each child&#8217;s physical and psychological well-being. Brian also made the user interface a priority, so the system would be easy, and even enjoyable to use. After each check-up or doctor&#8217;s assessment, information is entered and stored in the individual child&#8217;s profile. The Touch A Life staff in Ghana is currently training to use the new EMR system, and it will also be available to medical volunteers and US-based staff.<\/p>\n<p>Development took roughly two months, with final testing and changes made in January of this year. The system is now fully functional and is compatible across all digital platforms &#8211; PC, tablet, and mobile device.<\/p>\n<p>Ontarget was able to complete this project quickly and at a very high standard of quality due to their deep medical database experience, along with their work on another non-profit project, the <a href=\"https:\/\/globalhealthinnovations.net\/?page_id=97\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HIT system for Global Health Innovations<\/a>. The Touch A Life team is incredibly grateful for Ontarget&#8217;s gift, and their heart for the children we serve. After working with Touch A Life, Terry is researching ways to help in the fight against human trafficking in his local community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the core of their business, Ontarget wants to give back.
