KMTC Joins World in Marking World Pharmacist Day 2025

Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) has joined the global community in marking World Pharmacist Day 2025, themed “Think Health, Think Pharmacists.” The event is taking place at KMTC Mombasa Campus and brings together pharmacists and pharmaceutical technologists from KMTC campuses in Mombasa, Nairobi, Nakuru, and Manza, alongside representatives from Mount Kenya University, Coast General Hospital, and the Kenya Pharmaceutical Association Coast Branch.

According to the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP), pharmacists are among the most accessible health professionals, playing a central role in ensuring the safe and effective use of medicines, administering vaccinations, supporting public health campaigns, advocating for rational antibiotic use, and promoting health literacy, particularly in underserved areas. FIP emphasizes that pharmacists’ expertise is crucial for safe, cost-effective healthcare, helping strengthen health systems and advance universal health coverage.

However, FIP has raised concerns about workforce shortages and financial constraints leading to the employment of unqualified staff in pharmacy roles, a practice that undermines patient safety, quality of care, and system efficiency.

This year’s World Pharmacists Day campaign seeks to raise awareness among policymakers and the public about the urgent need to fully integrate trained pharmacists into all health strategies, stressing that investment in pharmacists is an investment in stronger, sustainable health systems for all.

Today’s program at KMTC Mombasa features a keynote address, a pharmaceutical awareness walk, student-led panel discussions, professional talks, exhibitions, and networking sessions. These activities aim to highlight the importance of medicine safety, appropriate medication use, and equitable access to pharmacy services. Panel discussions will address gaps in medicine safety, the role of qualified pharmacy professionals, and the importance of multidisciplinary teamwork in improving patient outcomes and advancing progress towards universal health coverage.

Participants are also set to advocate for the safe, rational use of medication, raise awareness about pharmaceutical abuse, and discuss the profession’s expanding role in mental health care. For KMTC, this commemoration is more than a celebration. It reinforces the College’s commitment to providing high-quality pharmacy training and career development for students, while contributing to Kenya’s goal of building a patient-centered, resilient health system.

Smiles and Healing at KMTC Port Reitz as Turkish Doctors Conduct Medical Camp

It was a day of hope and relief at the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) Port Reitz Campus, as hundreds of families turned up for a free medical circumcision camp.

The initiative, held on September 17, 2025, was led by a team of doctors from Turkey under the Holistic Education Trust, in collaboration with the area Member of Parliament, Hon. Omar Mwinyi.

Using modern laser technology, the doctors successfully circumcised 235 children, delivering safer and faster procedures that gave parents much-needed reassurance.

Beyond the camp, discussions between the visiting doctors and KMTC leadership explored opportunities for training partnerships and the establishment of specialized clinics that would bring advanced healthcare services closer to the Port Reitz community.

The area MP, Hon. Omar Mwinyi, who graced the occasion, expressed his gratitude to KMTC for hosting the initiative and pledged continued support for such collaborations.

“Today, we have seen the impact that partnerships can have in touching lives. I am proud that our children are benefiting from world-class care, and I look forward to working with KMTC and our Turkish partners to expand healthcare solutions for our people,” said Hon. Mwinyi.

Representing the CEO, Dr. Kelly Oluoch, Port Reitz Campus Principal, Mr. Festus Lwambi, reaffirmed the College’s commitment to community health.

“KMTC is not just about training health professionals within classroom walls. We are part of this community, and by supporting initiatives like this, we fulfill our mission of bringing health closer to the people. This is a commitment we shall continue to uphold,” he said.

The event was also graced by local leaders, including the Speaker of the Mombasa County Assembly, Hon. Aharub Ebrahim Khatri, and the Port Reitz Ward MCA, Hon. Makarani Fadhili Mwalimu, who commended the exercise as a step forward in improving community health.

The smiles of relieved parents and the joy of children summed up the day, reflecting the power of partnerships that bring education, healthcare, and compassion together for the benefit of the community.
