About Us - Healthcare

Developing Solutions

For LMICs, sourcing and maintaining suitable healthcare equipment is a problem for remote rural clinics and larger urban hospitals alike – as well as for the charities, NGOs, churches and medical equipment distributors that work with and for them. We aim to tackle this issue head on, by providing equipment and training to those who need it, improving healthcare in some of the most deprived areas.

Our Story

Over twenty years ago, Medical Aid International was born from CEO and founder Tim Beacon’s personal experience of a rural Ugandan hospital. Here, he witnessed the agonizing challenges of providing adequate healthcare to the world’s most vulnerable people.

The non-existent or obsolete equipment; lack of maintenance and training; and contextually inappropriate donated devices from the West spurred Tim to found Medical Aid International in 2002 from his garage.

We've worked on a global scale to help support healthcare efforts in LMICs and low resource environments. We've developed solutions for a rural hospital in the DRC, a major Tanzanian teaching centre, or a Nepalese disaster zone.

Let's work together.

One of the easiest ways we can make budgets go a long way is the sensible use of equipment no longer required in the West. This recycling is very effective. Please do contact us for further details if you think you have equipment of any sort that may help.
