💜 Investment in specialised newborn care
💜 Stronger maternal health systems
💜 Support for families through emotional and practical care
💜 Equity, so every baby’s chance at life isn’t defined by geography or income

Together, let’s stand for healthy beginnings and hopeful futures.

Skin-to-skin contact (kangaroo care) is one of the most powerful interventions for preterm babies. Research shows it:
✓ Stabilises temperature, breathing and heart rate
✓ Supports weight gain and reduces stress hormones
✓ Promotes brain growth and neurodevelopment
✓ Improves long-term cognitive and physical outcomes

Immediate and sustained skin-to-skin contact during the neonatal period strengthens bonding and gives preterm infants the best start for healthy development.
Our specialist NICU team guides families to safely practice kangaroo care, providing expert support every step of the way.

Early antenatal care (ANC) helps detect risks sooner, enables timely treatment decisions, and supports safe delivery and recovery.
Through routine screening, growth monitoring, recommended immunisations and structured preparation for childbirth, ANC provides a reliable framework for informed care throughout pregnancy.

To support this, we will be hosting a Maternity Clinic Open Day on the 14th November at our hospital parking area. The session will allow expectant mothers to meet our clinicians, ask questions and receive clear guidance on recommended ANC schedules, necessary tests and the next steps in their care.

Preterm birth is one of the leading causes of complications and mortality in newborns worldwide. Babies born prematurely often face challenges such as respiratory difficulties, feeding problems and require careful monitoring to ensure their health and development. Early neonatal evaluation is crucial to assess their readiness to breathe independently, establish feeding stability and determine appropriate medical monitoring and care.

Our Founder & CEO, Dr. K.K. Gakombe, is in Mombasa participating in the 8th Speaker’s Roundtable 2025 in his capacity as Chair of the Kenya Healthcare Federation (KHF). The three-day forum, running from 10th to 12th November 2025, brings together the National Assembly and private-sector institutions under the KEPSA platform to strengthen collaboration on priority legislative and policy reforms.

The programme opened with a full-day consultative session with the National Assembly Departmental Committee on Health, focused on practical measures required to support a stronger health system. Key topics under discussion included implementation of the Social Health Authority (SHA), cost drivers and financing mechanisms, benefit-package and coverage gaps, provider empanelment and dispute-resolution mechanisms and the development of interoperable digital health and data-governance systems to improve continuity of care.

Parallel committee sessions are also considering broader cross-sector reforms that affect health delivery: including tax and VAT alignment, ICT and data-protection compliance, infrastructure investment and harmonised enforcement against illicit and counterfeit trade.

Today, the engagements continue, with sector boards and parliamentary committees advancing discussions on legislative and policy pathways that would improve access, operational efficiency and overall system performance.

The programme will conclude tomorrow with a Breakfast Roundtable on Linkages and Value Chains, facilitated under the KEPSA Foundation.

We recognise the value of sustained dialogue between Parliament, regulators and the private sector. We remain committed to supporting reforms that translate into measurable improvements in access, quality and financial sustainability for patients and health providers across the country.
