Here is your chance to strengthen emergency care in Kenya

The Emergency Medicine Kenya (EMK) Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that works alongside National and County governments and stakeholders to ensure timely, accessible and quality lifesaving emergency care in Kenya. To strengthen the emergency care systems in Kenya and in line with the WHO resolution on Emergency Care Systems for Universal Health Coverage (UHC), the foundation working in collaboration with the National and County governments, recently mapped out all the public healthcare facilities (including FBOs and NGOs) that have the ability to provide emergency medical care in Kenya (PROJECT 47). Majority of the emergency departments lacked basic emergency care equipment and supplies necessary to provide quality life-saving emergency care.

The “Adopt-an-ED” concept was developed by the EMK Foundation as an effort in assisting these public emergency departments to address their needs.

There are 5 main areas of need identified:

Essential emergency care equipment (5-Socket Oxygen Manifold, Vital Signs Monitors, Portable Ventilator and ECG Machine)
Emergency care treatment guidelines and training for all emergency care centre staff
Basic furniture for the emergency department (waiting room chairs, consulting tables and chairs and patient couches)
Emergency Hotline installation
Repair and maintenance of the emergency department building(s)
