The Directorate of Health encourages mobilization

In this letter from the Directorate of Health, local governments are encouraged to mobilise voluntary resources for the purchase/distribution of food and medicines, garbage disposal, transport of goods and personnel, companionship to the doctor, childcare and evacuation of health institutions.

Hemsedal municipality created a channel where volunteers can do homedeliveries like food and medicines, etc. to at-risk groups and people in quarantine. More than 200 people joined the group that afternoon. Great contribution to our preparedness.

How to mobilise residents for large-scale voluntary work, safely and easily

It has never been easier for local governments to mobilise residents and collaborators to solve important welfare tasks. Nyby is a system developed for this in mind, and are already in use in over 40 municipalities and organisations in Norway and Sweden.

Easy to ask for help

For health professionals and quarantined residents. Nyby does not require training for residents, it is adapted to routines in health and care services and approved for service telephones and LMP's in several municipalities.
Easy to contribute

For qualified residents and volunteers. Everyone who contributes gets qualified, securing the right person for the right task. The local government has total overview regarding who takes which assignments and what should be followed up upon.

The Nyby app is straightforward and easy to use. Since we have it on our service phones, it is easy to post the actual needs when we are together with the users.
