Many expectant and new parents crave the same things: the support of a community and advice from medical experts. From her experience dealing with contact tracing of Ebola to her wife’s Thyroid cancer treatment, Camilla Hermann saw that community was a huge factor in reaching positive health results. As a result she co-founded Oath Care, a cohort based experience for maternal and pediatric care.
In episode 20 of Art of the App Podcast, Camilla Hermann and I discuss the importance of practicing healthcare in the community.
Camilla is an entrepreneur whose quest to find the most rigorous and impactful ways of doing good has led her to refugee camps in Ghana, an underground bunker in Jordan, Ebola hot zones in Sierra Leone, border towns in Liberia, hospitals in Texas, and vibro-acoustic chambers in New York. It was through these experiences that she honed her core strengths: unwavering integrity and getting shit done.
Camilla has built both for-profit companies and non-profit organizations. Her work has been featured by CBS News, Harvard University, Huffington Post, as well as at the Clinton Global Initiative University Conference, the United Nations NGO Conference, and as a semi-finalist for the Ashoka Changemaker Challenge.
Notably, Camilla developed a life-saving tech platform, Assisted Contact Tracing (ACT) to scale outbreak containment of Ebola during the 2014 epidemic in West Africa.
Some of the things Camilla and I discuss:
- Why cohort-based community health is better for you and the way of the future
- How Camilla sees healthcare transitioning since the pandemic — we’re no longer willing to privilege convenience over connection.
- How an intimate system for maternal health and pediatrics has the potential to greatly improve the lives of the next generation of kids.
- How Oath is uniquely positioned to develop novel interventions to support the families of tomorrow because of how it embeds so seamlessly into people’s everyday lives.
- How medical providers can use this type of platform to build rich relationships with their patients through extended conversation and cohort-based experience.
Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive inspiration from founders and investors shaping the future.
