The Government has embraced a new paradigm shift in the provision of basic healthcare and medical services to Kenyans.

President William Ruto said the fight against diseases, especially preventable ones, can only be won if more time and resources are devoted to preventive medicine.

He said for decades, success in relieving citizens of the huge burden of human suffering and financial distress caused by illness has been elusive. The Head of State noted that the community health promoters will be facilitated to provide a defined package of preventive and promotive health services at the household level.

President Ruto said 100,000 community health promoters kits will be provided by the national government through the Ministry of Health, together with smart phones to make them reachable.
