HealthNearby — Find Healthcare Facilities in Cameroon

The Community This app was built for the people of Cameroon — a country of 28 million where only 7.9% of the population has health insurance. When someone gets sick at night and needs to find an open pharmacy that accepts Mobile Money, they have no tool to turn to. They rely entirely on word of mouth. HealthNearby was built for them: the mother looking for an open clinic at 10 PM, the student who needs a lab test and only has MTN MoMo on his phone, the family that just moved to Douala and doesn't know which hospital is closest. What I Built HealthNearby is a mobile-first web directory that helps people in Cameroon instantly find nearby healthcare facilities — hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and laboratories — with: ✅ Real-time open/closed status (computed from current local time) 💛 Mobile Money payment filters (MTN MoMo, Orange Money) 🌙 On-duty pharmacy filter (for late-night emergencies) 📞 One-tap call button (native tel: link for mobile) 📱 Fully responsive design — built for low-end
