Kudos to Pumwani Mat Hospital for leading the way! As a RH Specialist in Nairobi, my big question for the panel on #MondayReport: What specific, actionable lessons is @MOH_Kenya drawing from Pumwani's Clinical Officer leadership to scale up the #EWENE campaign? @citizentvkenya
Am yet to see solid proposals on solutions to avoid such occurrences in future. @NAssemblyKE in its wisdom and that of @NyikalDr established Kenya Health Human Resource Advisory Council @khhrac26642 to among other functions; develop a policy on the welfare of healthworkers which includes mental health strategies to prevent and identify such in a timely manner.
The Council remains underfunded and understaffed almost a decade later and thereby unable to carry out its functions optimally even after inauguration by HE President @WilliamsRuto.
There is need to capacity build KHHRAC and enable it to function optimally @HonAdenDuale.
It's high time we answer the question of "who cares for the careers?" or else we will continue discussing this on social media without any tangible and solid solution.
May the soul of the innocent patient who fell victim to our collective and systemic neglect rest in eternal place.

It's with a heavy heart we confirm the individual behind the botched surgery in TransNzoia is a MO. It's deeply disturbing that a trained medic could oversee such a catastrophic failure;Outright negligence. Such actions are entirely incompatible with the medical profession.
At this point, we pack up the superiority complex and go do some internal auditing. While @MiskellahMD and co has been busy gatekeeping the title, your own 'elite' squad member was out here playing Frankenstein. Let’s focus on quality control first before we talk about cadres💀🤫
Save the God-complex for the theater. A crisis shouldn't be your excuse to tear down colleagues who keep the healthcare system alive daily. We’re teammates, not rivals. Tone down the hubris. That MO should be in jail as we speak. It's totally unacceptable
Clinical Officers tomorrow should all go to church and tithe coz wueh!Had that criminal been one of them, wangekipata!My boys and girls were on standby to unleash the wrath of why they can never be us!!I have to confess that my initial reaction was that this can not a medical doctor.....awuoro!
As @kUCOofficial our unyielding commitment is to patient safety. We will never shield or defend any member who compromises patient care or violates public trust. We ask @kmpdu to buy the same.
@KoinangeJeff@OBurrows Ask Sakaja-My local Health Centre cannot offer services because Clinical Officers are on strike. On referral to Mama Lucy, no services are available because of the same strike. You need to end this Mr. Governor

Dr Patrick Amoth: Why the Man Trusted with Safeguarding Universal Health Care for All Kenyans is Crippling it Behind the scenes
Recently, something very interesting and which I think majority of us missed happened at the National Assembly....🧵
We've achieved great things as a union. This is a new stressor on our table, and we're up to the task. We'll serve it at the doorstep of @MOH_Kenya aggressively. We'll NOT be abolished in any way.
#ProtectClinicalMedicine
98 yearsof professional growth, zero apologies. Clinical officers are ready to fiercely defend our cadre from those who wish to see us abolished.
We will not be intimidated by 'aggressor of the profession' including DG. Dr. Patrick Amoth @DrPatrickAmoth or his representative who vows to end our training.
For avoidance of doubt, Our growth is unstoppable, and our presence in Kenya’s healthcare system is non-negotiable. #ProtectClinicalOfficers
@ntvkenya Mr. Akumali is a good man. However, the government he's leading has refused to implement agreements he's entered with with @kUCOofficial and healthcare professionals. #ImplementRTWA

@ntvkenya Honor Return to Work Agreements that your administration entered with @kUCOofficial on 16th July 2025 ~ ORDER & DIGNITY. There must be closure. Take charge of the county. Don't run away from challenges. Face them. Face us. @JNjorogeMuchiri support your boss.
The Clinical Officers Council is conducting sensitization sessions for all Clinical medicine, final-year students from 9th to 13th February 2026.
The purpose of these sessions is to provide guidance and support to students in preparation for the COC Pre-Internship Examination.
Stephen Muthama: I don't like being treated at public hospitals because public health workers are not paid well and on time, are demotivated due to the working conditions.
