Analysing the Impact Of The Use Of Drone Technology In Supply Chain Management In Improving Health Services In Ghana.

Drone has played a major role in supply chain management. The use of drones to deliver supplies to customers has impacted significantly, especially in areas where the targeted participant is remotely located from the source. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) or First Person View (FPV) drones have played a major role in the military, health care, and the business world in improving supply chain management. The use of drones in health care is basically for emergency purposes and also to reach inaccessible areas. This research aimed to provide the first comprehensive analysis of the impact of the introduction of UAVs in Ghana in improving the service pf health care providers. Health care in Ghana is fraught with several challenges, especially in rural areas where accessibility is hard to reach. The research analyses the impact of the use of drone technology in supply chain management in improving health services in Ghana. The quantitative method was adopted for the research. The research concluded that there was a moderately significant correlation between the use of drones and the supply chain within the health service. However, the research indicated that there is a need to widen the coverage of drone technology to increase the acceptability of drone technology nationwide.

Abstract

Drone has played a major role in supply chain management. The use of drones to deliver supplies to customers has impacted significantly, especially in areas where the targeted participant is remotely located from the source. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) or First Person View (FPV) drones have played a major role in the military, health care, and the business world in improving supply chain management. The use of drones in health care is basically for emergency purposes and also to reach inaccessible areas. This research aimed to provide the first comprehensive analysis of the impact of the introduction of UAVs in Ghana in improving the service pf health care providers. Health care in Ghana is fraught with several challenges, especially in rural areas where accessibility is hard to reach. The research analyses the impact of the use of drone technology in supply chain management in improving health services in Ghana. The quantitative method was adopted for the research. The research concluded that there was a moderately significant correlation between the use of drones and the supply chain within the health service. However, the research indicated that there is a need to widen the coverage of drone technology to increase the acceptability of drone technology nationwide.
