Why Tamanu exists
Health providers need access to quality systems that are sustainable.
The reality? Systems that assume big budgets, reliable internet or lots of IT resources. Decision makers are left with a choice: buy an expensive system that doesn’t fit the context, use a mix of platforms that don’t sync, or stay with paper records entirely.
Tamanu was designed to fill this gap, by providing enterprise-grade functionality with no licensing fees, seamless integrations and the ability to work offline.
Overview
Tamanu Desktop
At the hospital level, a desktop-enabled version allows a full suite of functionality, including scheduling, admissions, medication orders and admin, lab and imaging requests, bed management, discharges and patient management (including treatment notes). The desktop app works offline, syncing with a central server whenever an internet connection becomes available.
The platform is designed to interface with existing patient administration systems or Master Patient Indexes (assuming publicly available APIs) and allow full integration with laboratory and radiology IT systems where they are available.
Tamanu Mobile
At the clinic level, a mobile version offers intuitive functionality designed for mobile health workers. Capturing diagnoses, treatments, vitals and the recording of events such as vaccinations and ante-natal visits. Patients can be tracked by program registry and medication orders made.
Clinicians in connected facilities have access to the same record – a single source of truth. All data is captured on a patient’s record, regardless of whether they are undergoing major surgery at a referral hospital or attending their local clinic for a basic check-up.
The app is available across all Android devices.
Clinical service delivery
Powerful, secure, highly usable.
Tamanu adapts easily to different clinical contexts, patient groups and data needs. The Program Registry module enables longitudinal patient and cohort management. Admins can configure everything through the front-end panel, including program registries, forms, roles, permissions, users and reference data, without needing developers.
