To ensure that the health care system would not be overburdened during the COVID-19 pandemic, Trinidad and Tobago sought mechanisms to provide health services without unduly exposing patients and health workers to the virus. As part of a project funded by the India-UN Development Partnership Fund, exchanges were held between PAHO, the Ministries of Health of Rwanda and Trinidad and Tobago, and the University of Trinidad and Tobago to explore the potential applications of health service robots, which Rwanda had successfully introduced into their health system in 2020. Need assessments undertaken by the university identified those services for which robots were the preferred delivery option. Capacity building, including the critical technology transfer component, was essential to the execution and sustainability of the initiative. These robots have the potential to kick-start technological transformation of the Trinidadian health sector, perhaps even leading to opportunities for other countries.
