Future Clinicians Experience Spinal Injury Care at NSIRH
Today, Clinical Medicine and Surgery students from Mount Kenya University (MKU) visited the National Spinal Injury Referral Hospital (NSIRH) for an insightful academic trip focused on spinal cord injury care.
The students were warmly welcomed by Chairperson Training and Attachment Dr. Miriam Muriithi, Student Coordinator Lornah Wambani, and Physiotherapist John Luchwala Masinde.
During an interactive session with our multidisciplinary team, the students gained valuable insights into spinal injury management, prevention of complications, the impact of road traffic accidents, and the importance of early referral for spinal injury patients.
The learning experience concluded with a guided hospital tour led by Masinde and expert clinician Ann Muthei, giving the students a firsthand look at the specialized services and patient-centered care provided at NSIRH.
👏 We are proud to support the training of future healthcare professionals and inspire the next generation of clinicians committed to improving lives.
