PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERIENCE AND PRIMARY HEALTH CARE PROVISION
From an early stage of her career, Dr. Ogboro-Okor developed a strong knowledge base and practical experience in public health advocacy, particularly in the development of community-tailored Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials addressing communicable and non-communicable disease prevention and control.
She has extensive experience in health promotion, public engagement and the development of community-targeted health communication packages using both conventional and digital media.
Her communication experience includes the use of podcasts, blogs, Facebook, X/Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn, alongside conventional print and visual media, to communicate health information and promote public health awareness.
Dr. Ogboro-Okor is proficient in the application of strategic analytical tools, including:
Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) analysis;
Political, Economic, Social and Technological (PEST) analysis;
Health needs assessment;
Strategic intervention design;
Programme development and implementation planning; and
Policy and guideline development.
She has demonstrated the ability to synthesise these approaches into coherent policy documents, guidelines and implementation frameworks designed to optimise healthcare delivery systems. Her work in these areas has received recognition at institutional, national and international levels.
She also has substantial experience in the design of clinical and public health audits, Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) frameworks, intervention assessments and quality-improvement processes. These activities are directed towards improving health outcomes and strengthening healthcare delivery within defined institutional and population frameworks.
She is the founder of Loretta Health Initiative operational in both the United Kingdom and Nigeria, working on bringing health care advocacy into the communities at primary healthcare level with special emphasis on women’s reproductive healthcare.
