Telemedicine services provided to residents in Oiapoque

Residents of Oiapoque, located in the northernmost part of Amapá, received medical assistance through telemedicine during the 9th edition of the TCE na Comunidade program. Held at the Joaquim Nabuco State School, the initiative provided virtual consultations, laboratory exams, vaccinations, and dental services.

The program, supported by the Government of Amapá, allowed patients to receive medical guidance and referrals without the need to travel to the capital, Macapá. In addition to virtual appointments, the state health department provided laboratory testing for protein, albumin, creatinine, and urea, with some results available in approximately ten minutes.
