Speaking on Friday after receiving a comprehensive update from the National Equipment Service Programme (NESP) Implementation Committee, chaired by Dr. Isaac Kimani, Principal Secretary for Medical Services, Dr. Ouma Oluga commended the ongoing efforts to strengthen health service delivery through the NESP, a joint initiative of the Ministry of Health and the Council of Governors.
The PS received the progress update detailing current interventions to equip public health facilities with modern medical technologies.
Dr. Oluga expressed confidence in the ongoing efforts to modernize public health facilities with advanced medical technologies.
The multi-agency team, comprising officers from the Ministry and the Council of Governors, is driving the programme’s rollout across counties to support the delivery of quality health services.
The Principal Secretary appreciated the team’s commitment and support, noting that the programme is instrumental in accelerating Kenya’s journey toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC).
“Equipping our health facilities with the right tools is a cornerstone of effective care. This is how we build a responsive, resilient health system,” said Dr. Oluga.
