The structural mismatch
More nurses than jobs.
More nurses than jobs.
Patients without convenient access.
Supply side
Uganda produces more registered nurses annually than health facilities can absorb. Qualified UNMC-registered professionals actively seek flexible, well-paid work.
Demand side
New mothers, the chronically ill, the elderly and post-surgical patients need professional nursing care they cannot access conveniently — or at all — outside a traditional clinic.
Our role
Medic on the Go is the verified bridge — connecting UNMC-registered nurses with the households and institutions that need them. We are a workforce placement platform, not a healthcare provider.

Model A · Placement fee
10–15% of first month's salary (or flat fee) for permanent / long-term hires made through the platform.
Model B · Monthly retainer
Fixed monthly fee for priority on-demand access — ideal for unpredictable staffing gaps and short-notice cover.

Trust & Safety
Designed in from day one — not retrofitted
Workforce agency structure
We are a placement intermediary. The nurse holds clinical responsibility and her own licence. Four core legal documents protect all parties before the first booking.
Group professional indemnity
"Every nurse on our platform is insured." A trust signal most competitors do not visibly offer — and real risk mitigation for clients and the company.
Operational controls
Client ID verification, live location sharing, 24/7 emergency line, three-strike policy, 24-hour complaint resolution, and quarterly refresher training.
Evidence trail
Timestamped check-in/out, credential records, and incident logs create a clear audit path if anything ever goes wrong.
Indicative pricing
Transparent rates. Validated by market.
Benchmarked against active Ugandan operators. Final rates confirmed after a 15–20 booking pilot.
