Separator
A medical doctor and public health specialist, Amr Bakr worked in UN agencies and multiple international organizations. The idea of entrepreneurship struck him while he was serving his last job placement as a Chief of Party with Johns Hopkins University. He somehow believed that technology is the future and businesses would be all technology enabled in the coming years. He got in touch with his friend Tamer Shawer who is excellent in organization management and encouraged him to join his journey. Both of them started with market research to define the lacuna existing in the healthcare space. To their surprise, they found out that nursing gap is the hugest one everywhere in the world. With an aim to bridge this gap, they decided to deploy all available technologies to enhance healthcare delivery. This marked the beginning of 7keema.

These services range from quick care e.g.injections passing through elderly care, wound care, up to ICU care for patients after hospital discharge. “We offer unique solutions to address several industry problems. The quality inherited instant services that are really traceable and safe, customer-focused management, excellent operations, variety of services, the flexibility of provider gender and level, around the clock service, experienced providers and a very competitive price rate are few of our distinguishing factors,” enlightens Amr.

It is likely that in the coming years, primary healthcare will entirely be replaced by Artificial Intelligence-based nursing triage which means humans will have no role in this step. Moreover, the hospitals’ role will decrease to be only for surgeries and ICU care;
