Kisumu is among the first of 10 counties to receive an oxygen bundle under the #OxygenAsAService programme, supported by the Philips Foundation and CPHD.

Beyond equipment, facility teams received hands-on training to strengthen reliable oxygen care.

Talking about periods should be chic. 🩸✨

Through our #HeavyMenstrualBleeding work, we’re breaking the silence and helping adolescent girls feel informed, confident, and empowered to speak up about their menstrual health.

Knowing your body? That’s chic. 💕

@cphdev is in Kibra, hearing from adolescent girls about Heavy Menstrual Bleeding through community conversations & FGDs.

We're also distributing pads as part of community support. Listening, learning, gathering evidence for better adolescent #MenstrualHhealth.

A future where no woman dies while giving life should be a reality, not a dream.

For most of us, breathing is effortless. But in many hospitals across Africa, delivering oxygen remains one of healthcare’s toughest challenges.

Tech alone doesn’t save lives; systems do. From power to training, every breath counts.

Reflections from the 10th @MidwivesKenya Conference, where CPHD proudly hosted a panel on the national integration of #POCUS in ANC.

With midwives & nurses on the frontlines, equipping them with this tool means early detection, timely referrals & healthier moms + babies.
