12 | P a g e

Preventive and Curative.

Vision

Mission

To serve and improve people’s livelihoods through good leadership, innovative technology, and

efficient infrastructure.

Strategic Objectives

The sector seeks to enhance health status of the residents and reduce prevalence of

communicable diseases conditions as set out in the CIDP. To achieve these goals, the sector has

prioritized on improving accessibility, availability and quality of specialized health care.

Key programmes to be implemented in the MTEF 2016/17-2018/19 period include: completion

of the six sub county hospitals; completion of all on-going ward health facilities; upgrade and

In addition, the sector intends to automate all health facilities and roll out comprehensive

community strategy activities

2.3.2 SECTOR PERFORMANCE FOR 2015/16 FY

risk factors through evidence-based interventions and best practices. The county has a total of

201 health facilities, 115 are public facilities while 86 are either privately owned or FBO or

NGO.

In Infrastructure development the health sector is upgrading sub county health facilities from

Following successful sector hearing with stakeholders the following are reactions raised by

stakeholders.

Structure of the county model health facilities being upgraded to level 4 at sub county

level should include construction of a morgue. Stakeholders put across that numerous

efforts to have stand-alone morgues in the county had been futile hence the need to

include the same in the upgrade plan of the health facilities. The model facility at MTRH

is currently overstretched operating at 200%.

The health sector majority programmes are infrastructure based. Stakeholders pointed out

the need to create demand and access for the already existing infrastructure by allocating

more resources in Advocacy, Public sensitization/education, Capacity building and

Partnering with other stakeholders. Various partners are ready and willing to partner in

the health sector such as DSW and only would want the sector to present its work plan.

16 | P a g e

There arose a discussion on the improvement of infrastructure based on the existing

needs. Stakeholders pointed out that new infrastructure should be need based and support

priority towards service delivery. For example, more focus should be directed to the

completion of the three main hospitals in Ziwa, Turbo and Burnt Forest to decongest

MTRH.

Stakeholders also raised the need to strengthen prevention care by integrating with other

sectors such as environment to mitigate the effects of climate changes on public health.

Also to put more efforts towards health International days to create sensitization.

It is important for the county to co-ordinate a stakeholders meeting with all health actors

to boost Public Private Partnerships. This partnership with health stakeholders would lead

in having a rehabilitation center for PWD’s, Red-Cross and NTSA providing support

towards construction of a county emergency hospital among many others.

The health sector should clearly outline its plan of having staff that are specialists in

particular areas of need where there exists staff capacity gaps. This staff should be able to

use the new facilities and equipment purchased for upgraded facilities. Upgrading of each

health facility should be based on the uniqueness that each facility could offer.

Stakeholders stressed the importance for the sector to have a needs scan of the county

health environment. This will empower innovativeness in service delivery. For example,

the strength of MTRH as a partner can be used towards county staff capacity building.

Such strategies are important as donors would only be willing to provide funding on the

availability of existing strategies.

The health sector should strengthen Public Private Partnership with donors and investors

to strengthen service delivery and make public the health sector PPP policy. This will

support mobilization of resources and ensure implementation of programmes outlined in

the CIDP.

There arose stakeholder emphasis on having County First Lady Initiatives in supporting

Health related issues through advocacy and public sensitization.

Emerging Issues

During the stakeholders meeting held on 19th

October 2016, the following issues were raised.

Several roads in Huruma needed to be maintained including Mti Moja Kahoya. There is need

for more funding to maintain already graded and graveled roads.

That the new project of improving Donyo Lessos Pan villa Rd to Bitumen standards had

easened traffic movement in Kisumu Rd. There was need to remove all the Matatus plying

that route so as to remove congestion.

Some good work had been done in street lighting installation; however more money needed

to be allocated for maintenance. More solar street lights to be installed which would reduce

costs.

Beautifying all major streets with good ornamental trees.

Some good work was done in the construction of walkways – shades for rest should be put in

place along the walkways. Encroachment along the walkways should be done away with.

Further, abuse of the walkways should be punished by enforcing the law.
