To help address critical infrastructure gaps and improve healthcare services, the County Government of Nandi is set to deliver a state-of-the-art hospital that will transform Kapsengere, a once rural locality of Terik Ward in an effort geared towards enhancing access to improved health services to residents living along the border. Ground works are underway to complete the facility, which is expected to reduce the cost of treatment in neighboring counties and contribute to Nandi county’s quest to become a medical hub.
The New Multi-Storey Hospital
The new hospital will not only boost access to healthcare in Kapsengere but will also attract patients from the region and beyond.
The modern hospital will encompass inpatient, outpatient, pediatric wards, theatres and causalities units with modern diagnostic equipment to enhance quality service delivery to the public at an affordable fee while boosting the facility’s revenue collection.
