The project, done in partnership with the Emergency Medicine Kenya Foundation (EMKF), will serve a vital purpose in providing emergency medical care in line with the hospital’s mission of providing quality, affordable and accessible specialised healthcare in the Nairobi Metropolis. The equipment , an oxygen gas manifold with nine oxygen gas delivery points and six vital sign monitors are key to the delivery of quality emergency medical care at the facility.
