About SHS

A Vision for Healthier Futures

SHS was founded on a powerful belief: every child deserves access to quality healthcare, regardless of circumstance. As a pioneering healthcare initiative in Somalia and Somaliland, we bridge the gap between students and essential medical services, ensuring no child’s education is hindered by preventable health issues.

Through our innovative school health program, we place trained nurses in schools to provide affordable, routine check-ups—including dental, vision, hearing, and general health screenings—alongside immediate care for injuries and emergencies. But our mission goes beyond examinations: we’re building safer, healthier, and more nurturing school environments where children can thrive.

Parents gain peace of mind knowing their child’s well-being is safeguarded, while students focus on learning, free from untreated health burdens. Because when children are healthy, they can fully embrace education—and a brighter future.

Contact us today for more information and take the first step for a healthier future for our younger generations of students.

Vision

To become the leading provider of school health services in the region, ensuring every student receives the care they need to grow, learn, and succeed.

We envision a Somalia/Somaliland where:

    ✔ No child suffers from undiagnosed vision, hearing, or dental conditions.
    ✔ Preventive care stops small issues from becoming lifelong barriers.
    ✔ Schools are sanctuaries of health, where students feel safe, supported, and ready to learn.

With thousands of students already under our care, we are expanding to reach every school in the country—because timely intervention today prevents crises tomorrow.

Mission

To detect, prevent, and treat health issues early—before they escalate.

Many childhood health challenges—poor vision, hearing loss, dental decay, malnutrition—are preventable but often go untreated due to cost or lack of access. Left unchecked, they harm education, confidence, and long-term well-being.

SHS exists to:

    🔹 Provide routine screenings at schools, identifying issues early.
    🔹 Deliver effective care, reducing financial strain on families.
    🔹 Empower students to focus on learning, not untreated pain or disability.

We believe no child should choose between health and education.

What we do

At SHS, we are committed to addressing the pressing health challenges faced by today’s youth. Many students struggle with preventable health issues that hinder their academic success and overall well-being. Without intervention, these problems can escalate, leading to long-term consequences—both for the students and society.

To create a healthier, more equitable future, SHS has launched an innovative school-based healthcare initiative. SHS is transforming school healthcare by addressing preventable barriers to learning.

Our nurses provide immediate care, support, and emergency assistance, bridging the gap between schools and healthcare systems.

What we do

SHS is a ground breaking service that is aimed at tackling issues that our younger generations are experiencing. Many students have issues with things that are easily preventable and that will affect them and have a massive impact on their studies.

To combat these issues that will only get worse and that will eventually cost a small fortune, SHS has introduced a new service that will prevent this from happening.

SHS will place a nurse at every school and will do the following check-ups for the students: Hearing test, Vision test, Oral check-up and general check-ups like monitoring their growth and nutrition. The nurse on site will deal with everything the student may need and will accompany the child if they need to be taken to a hospital in emergency cases.

Eye Test

Education is the light in life and seeing is believing.

Dental Test

Life is short, smile while you have teeth.

Hearing test

The voice of the intellect is a soft one, but it does not rest until it has gained a hearing.

General Test

These check-ups aim to ensure that children are healthy, meeting developmental milestones, and receiving necessary medical attention and guidance for a healthy lifestyle
