Maternal and Child Health Handbook App 'Boshimo' Launches in Minamiosumi Town, Kagoshima

The maternal and child health handbook app 'Boshimo,' operated by Boshimo Inc., has been officially adopted in Minamiosumi Town, Kagoshima Prefecture, and will be available as 'Mina Smile' starting Monday, June 1st. Minamiosumi Town is working to create an environment where people want to raise children by responding to the needs of those who wish to give birth and families raising children through various support measures. This time, 'Boshimo,' which allows digital recording of paper handbook data and has been adopted by over 870 municipalities, has been selected. The operation begins in line with the Children and Families Agency's policy to promote the use of electronic maternal and child health handbooks and maternal and child health DX. 'Boshimo' is an app that easily supports vaccination scheduling, health checkup result management, and local information distribution via smartphones, tablets, and PCs. Since data is stored in the cloud, it serves as a backup in case of loss due to disasters and supports continuous use when changing devices, allowing for peace of mind.
