MAKUENI BOOSTS HEALTH SERVICES TO EASE WOTE HOSPITAL CONGESTION

Health services in facilities around Wote town are receiving a major upgrade as the Makueni County Government moves to ease the pressure on the County Referral Hospital and the maternity wing at the Mother and Child Hospital.

In collaboration with Eni Kenya, the county has already put into operation a newly equipped maternity block, complete with a septic-tank-linked ablution facility.

The initiative includes the ongoing transformation of Kambi Mawe Dispensary into a Level 3 facility.

The dispensary now boasts a modern ablution block designed with disability-friendly features, ensuring accessibility for persons with mobility challenges.

Beyond infrastructure, the partnership with Eni Kenya also supports maternal and child health programs and strengthens the blood donation unit at the County Referral Hospital.

The new ablution block at Kambi Mawe will be officially commissioned by Governor Mutula Kilonzo Jr in the coming days, marking another milestone in the county’s mission to bring quality healthcare closer to residents.
