HOSPITAL CHAPLAIN LEAD PRAYERS FOR CAREGIVERS, PATIENTS AND COMMUNITY
Kapsabet County Referral Hospital staff earlier today gathered for a prayer service led by volunteer chaplain in support of the medical professionals and public safety personnel who have struggled to save lives, as well as of patients and families.
The prayer session was led by Fr Masika of Saint Peter’s Catholic Church, Kapsabet.
“It’s an honor just to serve alongside the staff here at Kapsabet County Referral Hospital and support our community and patients and families who are here each and every day,” Fr Masika said in opening remarks.
The hospital has about 2 volunteer chaplains on its list.
The CEC Member for Health and Sanitation Ruth Koech thanked the chaplains and said they had been asked to give ”words of encouragement and support for our patients, their family members and also our employees who are working very hard to provide excellent care for our community and our patients.”
The hospital leadership plans various ways to show support during a “challenging and extremely stressful time,” she said.
